Claire's are having one of those events at the moment where you can get any 5 sale items for £5 so, naturally, I had to pop in and have a nosey. I know they market themselves to a younger customer but you can sometimes find some great stuff in there.
I spotted these handcuff earrings and literally stopped where I stood and gasped. I've wanted a handcuff necklace for ages and I knew straight away that I could make one out of these fully functional handcuff earrings. I've always loved making, fixing and modifying jewellery and my crafty brain started ticking, working out what I would need and how I would do it.
I set about finding a suitable chain which I also found in the sale and as soon as I got home I took out my trusty pliers and set to work. It was really easy but I needed an extra link so I improvised and made one out of the earring wire! And here is the result...
In case you're curious, here are the other items I got in the sale.
