diy dannijo

they say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. and i have more time on my hands than dollars in my pocket, so when i see a $445 dannijo necklace i love - that's like a year's worth of burritos - i have to get crafty. 

here's my diy version of the dannijo capucine. i bought my vintage rhinestone necklace on ebay and my neon nail polish from claire's. total spent: $25. (you obviously can save more shopping at the flea market, forever 21, or your grandmother's costume jewelry and using nail polish you already own.) okay! let's get started:

I don't normally trust myself with DIY, but this one is simple and easy enough that I think I will give it a try! Thanks for the how-to!

I'm a first time commenter, but I've been reading your blog for a while, and I wanted to say that it's lovely - one of the first places I stop every time I crack open my laptop. I love your style and your writing :)

I just bought a vintage necklace last weekend at the flea market. I was so going to do the same diy with it. Yours came out great!

I love it! I have a couple of rhinestone necklaces I want to do this to, but I had bought paint pens instead... We'll see how they turn out!
