Juicy-colored resin and Perspex jewels are summer’s most fashionable currency! Add color to your outfit in an instant by crafting your own.
Sew colorful abstract plastic pieces together with ribbon to make a statement necklace, as seen on the runway at the Marni catwalk show. For real designer style, take the trend that one stitch further by stitching the ribbon and plastic necklaces into the neckline of a top or dress. Finish off the look by stacking plastic bangles up your arm for some serious arm candy!
For extra creativity, wrap colored yarn around the plastic shapes on your crafted necklace for a textured effect – as seen at the Emilio Pucci fashion show.
This is an easy make that anyone can try their hand at, so give it a go and wear your necklace with pride. It will be a fraction of the cost of a designer piece seen on the fashion catwalks and, of course, a unique one-off piece made by you!
