I ordered some jewelry from Forever 21 awhile ago and bought some things that I thought looked really cute online, but didn’t turn out so cute in person. Since their return policy is final sale on all jewelry I was stuck with a necklace that I wasn’t very excited about. So I decided to add some DIY magic to it and try to make it into something that I would wear, rather than let it take up space and gather dust at the bottom of my drawer.

Craft & Jewelry 3 In 1 Pliers – to take apart the necklace and put it back together Super Glue Precision – to attach the thread to the necklace Bent Multi-Purpose Scissors 8″
Embroidery Floss/Thread – I limited myself to 5 so I wouldn’t buy the whole range of colors available It's also easier to mix and make the necklace with less colors.
I took each section of the necklace apart so it would be easier to wrap. I put a little dab or superglue wherever I started and ended a color. Here I’m finishing off the darker green.
Once you're down wrapping each section, put the necklace back together and wear!
