Quick and Easy DIY Charm Necklace

Good Morning!

I have a very quick and easy project to share with you today.

It's this charm necklace.


When it comes to necklaces I am very picky.  I like them long and very simple in design.  I have found it very difficult to find anything that works for me in stores.

Instead, I've started making my own at home and I thought maybe you all would like to do the same.

Here are the supplies that I used.  
All of them were purchased at Micheal's.


Now before we dive into the tutorial, I want to point out that because I make my necklaces longer than normal I am able to simply slip them on over my head which makes pesky necklace clasps unnecessary.

OK, Lets get started.






















Simple right!

To add a charm . . . 









And your done!

I love how quick and easy these necklaces are to make.


Here are two other necklaces I made in the same way that I have been wearing the last couple of months.  


I used the same size chain to make two different necklaces in two separate lengths.  I like that I can wear one all by itself, or if I'm wanting a chunky look I can layer them together.

Hope you enjoyed this short tutorial,

Bye now,

  1. I have a hubby who has done this for me. We put the charm on before we put the chain back together. Less work! Our theme!!

  2. I like long necklaces too. But, I get in a rut and wear the same necklace day after day.

    Your R necklace turned out great.
