DIY Necklace

With its lightweight wood beads and color-blocked accents, Kate Spade’s Rosewood Dot Necklace is a fun piece for spring – and an even better DIY project.

You will need:

  • 13 wood beads (I opted for smaller beads than the original version.)
  • 14 gold beads
  • flexible beading wire
  • length of chain
  • clasp
  • nail polish to lacquer half of 6 beads
  • 2 crimping beads
  • crimp tool
  • pliers

DIY Necklace

Choose your lacquer color to paint the beads. I used Revlon’s “Minted” polish.

DIY Necklace

Wrap tape around the beads so you get a clean line. I taped each one to a toothpick, then poked the painted beads into a cardboard box to let them dry undisturbed.

DIY Necklace

If all went well, you should be able to peel off the tape gently to reveal a straight line. Use a little bit of nail polish remover to get rid of any smudges.

DIY Necklace

String the beads in the following order: unpainted, gold, painted, gold, and so on.

DIY Necklace

Attach the beaded strand to the chain, add a clasp, and you’re done!

Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcome Over the weekend, we drove to Michigan and welcomed this little lady to the family! She’s a two-year old snow Bengal that was surrendered after being bullied by the other cats in her home. We’re pretty sure she’s a seal lynx point Bengal, which has Siamese in the lineage, based on her vibrant, slightly crossed blue eyes. She is the sweetest, softest, most playful, and unbelievably talkative little girl. We’re crazy about her! 

We haven’t picked a name just yet, though. We have some ideas, but we’re waiting to get to know her personality more. 😊
