DIY MARNI UPCYCLING NECKLACE

For this you'll need plastic tubing (food safe/ fish tank, whatever; just cheap stuff at the hardware store). Cut that into pieces of varying lengths and lay out your design. For some I cut the tubing open lengthwise so other pieces could 'rest' inside it. Use a sharp embroidery needle with a large eye to pull ribbon through and piece together. Make sure to be symmetrical (e.g. repeat any ribbon work on both sides). Attach ties. Have fun!

The necklace still has some movement to it, so it's not lying properly here; however, when it's on, gravity (and some finger placement) solves that.
