Jessica at Oh So Happy Together posted a tutorial for making a pretty flower necklace inspired by one at Anthropologie, and guess what? You can use dollar store stuff to make it! [project details and instructions here]
You can get flower leis at the dollar store at this time of year (there’s a huge selection of tiki/luau supplies at my local DS right now), and I just discovered that my dollar store has freshwater pearl beads, too! The only thing you might need to pick up at a craft store is a necklace clasp (but you could also just tie this necklace around your neck, right?).
Project Estimate:
- Flower lei, $1
- Beads, $1
- Ribbon, $1
- Necklace clasp, $1 (optional)
- Felt, $.25 or on hand
- Glue gun, on hand
Total cost: $3 and up
