Do you have any holiday parties coming up? Looking for a unique accessory? Why not make a ribbon and rosette necklace? It'll take you all of about 20 minutes and I can guarantee you'll be the only one wearing such a unique piece of bling.
For this project I simply took some black satin ribbon and decided how long I wanted it. I happened to have some shiny gold fabric in my stash (not sure why) and I made two small rosettes out of it. I glue-gunned the rosettes to the ribbon and tied around my neck, allowing the ribbon ends to hang a bit.
This necklace would look MUCH better on a younger model! :-) But you get the idea.
Yet another great use for a very current trend. And you didn't have to spend a bunch of money on something that may be out of style by 2011.
I'm almost ready to share a tutorial for rosettes. You can find lots of rosette instruction online but I'm going to post my own (no sew!) method in the next day or so. Stay tuned.
