I spotted the necklace below a couple months ago at The Bay (a large Canadian department store similar to Macy’s in the U.S.) on display as well as at a couple stores in London when I was visiting in March. I loved the look of the knotted necklace part and thought it would go well with lots of pieces in my wardrobe.
Definitely looked like a DIY and I finally got around to it this month. It takes less than a couple hours if you’ve got all your materials.
Materials
Wide transparent ribbon (or fabric)
Jump rings
Eyepins
Baubles (I used silver ones – on the mannequin they are gold. You could also use pearls)
Pliers
Scissors

1. Cut a piece of ribbon about 10′ long.

2. Twist the ribbon and add jump rings every 1.5″ or so. Leave about 2-3″ at each end (to be used to tie necklace together).

3. Attach a silver bauble to each jump ring using the eyepin and pliers.

4. Tie the ribbon into a knot between each jump ring.
