We need 30 Necklace gifts for ballerinas to celebrate their first company performance...in silver, dainty, all the same, not expensive, and we need them now.


This is a first for me...I was concerned that the project would take forever, be very tedious, expensive, and the results would look marginal at best.


THANKFULLY, I WAS WRONG!

What You Need to Make Silver Necklaces:

Pliers - for cutting chain and assembling the pieces.
