proenza schouler inspired necklace: do it yourself
November 29, 2011 § 22 Comments
i had to diy this colorful gem inspired by proenza schouler. my twist requires super glue, some rope and an amateur level of wrapping and tying skills!
tools needed:
• 2 small bungee cords in different colors
• 1 yard of thick twisted rope cord
• thin hemp cord
• medium hemp cord
• black satin cord {2mm thick}
• brown satin cord {2mm thick}
• a bit of rhinestone chain
• a pair of scissors
• a lighter
• super glue or mod podge
to do:
based on the photos, cut, glue, wrap and tie where needed. the lighter is used to singe the string, rope and cord ends in order to prevent fraying. {be careful not to burn yourself!} although my variation is slightly different, please see honestly…wtf for more detailed instructions. have fun!

What an elaborate presentation. I can tell you put a lot of work into it. I wish I had your talent. Would you consider selling any of your wares? If so, I’m interested.

This is sooo awesome!! The colors are so terrific together and the design is so interesting and unique! You are soo talented, Kristina! I always love seeing what you do. Have a wonderful Tuesday!
I love that “amateur” tying and wrapping skills made it onto your materials list. ;) I think I just may have to create a variation of this necklace for my sisters; in fact, I’ll be scouring your DIY posts for Christmas gifts this month, my dear. Crafty gifts are a starving artist’s best friend after all. ;)
BTW, I passed a creativity award on to you this evening on my blog. Your site and YOU remain one of my favorite things about blogging, just in case you didn’t know. ;) Thank you so much for your support and friendship, Kristina! :) -Jennifer
