Diy: New Necklace From Old Brooch
when you'd rather wear a brooch as a necklace...

I have this brooch that I bought from Diva a few months ago. It was on sale for $5 and I just loved the colours and the shine! But I haven't really worn it at all because I am still thinking of an outfit to wear it with. Maybe I bought the brooch on impulse. (T_T)
But maybe it'll be easier for me to wear it after I have made it into a necklace! And so, I did make it into a necklace. It didn't cost me a thing at all because I used a chain that I have from an existing necklace. And the best part is, this necklace is not permanent. So, I can still wear the brooch as it is when I want to!

1
Get your brooch and chain!
-
2
Fold your chain into half. Insert the pin from the brooch slightly above the point where your chain is folded into half. Go higher up if your brooch is longer/wider, lower if your brooch is smaller!

3
Wrap the long free end of your chain around the corresponding side of your brooch.

This is how the back looks like. See how I wrapped the chain around each side of the brooch?

That's it! Isn't it simple? I think I will wear my 'new' necklace soon!
