Ythe phoenix in polka dots with her jacksonY
{DIY #1: Just When You Feel Like Wanting To Be Pocahontas}
This is a modification work.
I bought this choker from Luxewell pushcart stall at Downtown East, which I believe that they imported this straight from America.
Initially, it was only these 3 real feathers attached to a black cord.
The cord is too thin and might snap off if I keep wearing it often, plus, one of the small feather's quill has snapped off from the crimper.
I then decided to take the pendants off the cord.
So what I did is, I took 3 suede cords and pleat them and crimp both ends, attaching a small, thick jumper ring and a lobster clasp.
I decided on using 4 nickle feather charms I bought from an accessory shop in Chinatown and it's better to use 4 so I can align the charms and the feather pendants since they came in only 3.
I attached every one of them on a thick jump ring and attached them onto the choker.
This is absolutely simple to make : B
