D.I.Y Lace Bracelet and Choker Necklace…….

DIY Lace Bracelet and Chocker Necklace

These lace Bracelets & Choker Necklaces are adorned with a vintage shoe buckles. They would be the sort of gift you would give to your friend and immediately ask to borrow! Aren’t they just lovely!!

Here’s what you’ll need:
Do it your self D.I.Y materials

 Pair of Scissors

 Lace hem facing, woven edge seam biding, black ribbon or silk

 A variety of vintage shoe buckles

 In my case all material used were vintage



How to put together:

securing laces and ribbons


 Cut desired Lace length for bracelet or Choker Necklace

 Fasten and secure lace ribbon on back of buckle by lifting up the latch then push down to secure lace.

 Make a bow tie then clamp shoe buckle from bottom of bow where ribbon hangs down.

 For the smaller buckle I Intertwined the black ribbon where you see fit so it comes out in same direction at each end.

White Lace with gold shoe buckle


black and gold shoe buckle lace necklace


Please note: Some brooches works better than others due to their unique designs, shapes and sizes. Also I did not use any glue in case I want to reuse the buckle for their original purpose and other future projects!

Down to Earth Weekend............... Floral Romper and Combat Military boots, bow in my hair and almost sans makeup.

Vintage rose garden floral romper Jumper

It has been an exhausting week and feeling this way means it is time to go for a long walk at the park. So here I am in a floral romper, military boots, barely sans makeup and hair so natural that I resemble Simba the main character of The Lion King movie. But I feel we all could use a carefree day don't you?! I loved every minute of it of that moment!
