Hobby Ah-la Necklace


I happen to be a fan of little Buddha things (once again no, I am not converting). Some thoughts, ideas, peaceful way of life, the Dalai Lama, and more recently... jewelry. I have looked everywhere for a cute Buddha necklace ( to keep some good karma hanging around, hah!) but, the one I like is HELLO expensive (Dogeared.com).

So, I decided to try to make one myself. I found the makings at good-old Roberts Craft and voila! my very own (much cheaper but not quite as cute) hanging reminder of goodness.

This was really simple but I'm feeling like making my own jewelry might become something I'd like to keep doing. I don't know a dang thing about putting stuff together but hey, I figured this out and I love it!
