1 Minute DIY Key And Locket Neclace

This necklace came together in a minute using only two items purchased from Joann's Fabric and Craft Store. 

Materials Used:

Styled by Tori Spelling Necklace Top From Joann's On Sale For $2.79 Regularly $3.99

Jim Holtz Locket Keys From Joann's On Sale for $5.99 Regularly $9.99

Directions:

Using your jewelry pliers, remove the largest jump loops on both sides of the chain. Use those large jump loops to attach your key to the loop near the clasp. Then attach your lock to the smaller jump loops left holding the tripled chain.  That's it, your unique necklace is complete. 

The hardest part of this craft, is deciding which lock and key to use, they are all so pretty.
