Speak Your Mind
Necklaces on a Shoestring Budget
February 3, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Aret the stylish chuncky necklaces inspired by Anthro? I guess the pics below are from Stella and Dot. Either way, I’m liking this chunky, big, multiple strands of beads, style.
I also like how they add flowers, starfish and other metal or beaded designs.
So I bought some beaded strands from the Goodwill when I went yesterday, and I added a metal flower pin that I purchased at a yardsale this summer. Total cost: $4.00. Not quite the same as a Stella and Dot or Anthropology necklace for about $200.00, but for the cost difference, I’ll take the one I created!
Also purchased this wooden beaded, fabric wrapped strand for $3.00.
I think I’ll add a flower or two. Maybe I’ll make a teal one?
Also purchased some great pillows and a terrific glass 2ft tall vase. Some people say they just don’t have luck at yardsales, that they can’t find anything. I think I have the opposite problem…..there’s just not much that I couldn’t find a use for!

I'm a wife, a sister, a daughter, a mother of 5, a Jesus lover, a coffee abuser, an obsesser of all things DIY, design and decor related.
Most of what you'll see here are ways to live inexpensively, and how I put those into practice with my constant need to renovate houses.
We are a military family of 7, so houses must come big and inexpensive, and made beautiful as we go, turning what most would see as trash, into treasure.
Thanks for stopping by, stay awhile and make yourself at home. I hope you enjoy my ideas.
