The Leather, Circle, Bib, Necklace.

Hey Everyone! 
I hope your Thursday was wonderful .  I was able to stay home today( Thank Goodness) and finish a necklace I have been working on. It is made from Leather scraps and  a chain I found. I added a bead at the point, just for some different texture. I really Love it! I have a couple of other ones I am going to share, plus a great DIY, that a friend of mine did. Hopefully I will be able to post that later tonight.




 Oooo, and did you notice I was able to get TWO new additions to my mannequin family. 
Now Mrs, Mannequin is not alone anymore.
Tutorial
Difficulty: Easy 
( just took a little more time than my other projects)

Things you Need.
1. Leather scraps, 
2. Scissors.
3.Circle Jump Rings
4. Chain 
5 Small Pliers 
6. Hot Glue Gun

1. I cut different size strips of leather and hot glued them to make circles. ( I made small and medium ones)
2. I placed them all  down on the table to get the shape I wanted.
3. Then I  connected the leather circles with jump rings. 
4.  I  added the chain to the back of the necklace with jump rings.
and your done!


End Product video:)


I am headed off to work on my next project!!
 Have a Fantastic Night!

    Love it!! You have given me soooo many ideas on how to repurpose all the old leather items that have been packed away. Can't wait to get my craft room all finished up so I have a place to start working. And I'm so jealous of your mannequin family :)
