neckLACE

Here is a little something I whipped up for my friend Rory's birthday...and now she will know that while I am rich with LOVE, I am cheap on gifts....  

Here are my supplies:
  • peach fabric - thrifted @ $1 for about 3 yards
  • fabric doily - last day of a church rummage sale @ HALF OFF of 75 cents
  • vintage butterfly pin (not used in final product) - last day of estate sale @ HALF OFF of $1
  • vintage buttons - thrifted @ 10 cents
  • gold chain (not pictured here) - last day of estate sale @ HALF OFF of $1


And here is the finished neckLACE!

  2. That is really clever! I have some round doily-things (I think they are Battenburg Lace) that came from my Grandmother's sewing stash. They have to be at least 40 years old. Plus I have some antique buttons. At last, I finally have an idea what to do with them. Thanks!
