I got the idea for this DIY from The Fashion Citizen Videos on Youtube. If you haven't seen them click here and check them out! They do a ton of DIY's and have tons thrift store finds they share on their videos. I decided to make one of their necklaces that they were inspired to make when they saw a necklace like this one for $10 at H&M. Definitely made this for less then $10 and it's super easy! I hope you guys like it!
