lookalike : peacock feather necklace

I adore the beautiful colours of peacock feathers - take this gorgeous Peacock Feather Necklace on etsy, would happily pay the $35 they are asking for, but why wait to have it shipped all the way from the US when you can whip one up for around $10?



You'll need 5 peacock feathers, a nice sparkly chain and some jump rings. Cut the peacock feathers carefully, leaving only the eye of the feather. Pierce the stem of the feather with a large sewing needle and thread onto the jump ring. Then attach to your necklace. Done.


After I had finished, I realised I would probably would have prefered a finer chain. The one on etsy also had cute little silver feather charms inbetween the actual feathers, will be keeping my eye out for some of these too!

lookalike : long pom pom necklace



If you love your beanie topped with a pom pom, adorn you neck with the same sense of fluffyness. Cue this string of fluffballs on ASOS by Les Nereides for RRP $182.38.... or get your hands on some pom poms, wool and ribbon renmants, and a long chain and fluff up your own for around $10. Add a few stitches here, tie a bow there, string some wool together and you'll be set to pom pom all the way.
