I calculated the cost of my materials and this necklace cost around 50p / $1 to make, so this is very very very cheap bling.

The font was Bookman Old Style Italic, but I joined up the letters.

That is so awesome Cat and so easy to make- when I first saw the picture i thought "There's no way i can make that" but really it's so simple!!!! I just need to get some shrink plastic- haven't seen anywhere that sells it.
You rock girl!

I forgot to mention- my real name is Siobhan(Irish) and there is no way you can find a necklace like that in the shops with my name so now I can finally have one plus it has bling!!

WOW! That is SO cool!!! Everyone needs a shiney bling Bling!!
Did the tacky stuff you used to keep the shrink plastic on- was it hard to get off of the shink plastic?
I'm going shopping today for bling stones!!
Great project!

That is a really cute idea! What exactly is shrink plastic? Is it like Overhead plastic or is it thicker? I'm not sure we have it in Sweden.
Cat Morley
Jan 22, 2008 3:43pm
No, it came off really easily. Just do the classic blu-tack tactic (like the pun?) - take a ball of it and then roll it on the bit you want to remove, that will get it off nice and easily.

Oooh amazing! There is no where that sell things with my name, at least not spelt right so this is cool. Great idea! :)

How did you move the letters together?
Cat Morley
Jan 23, 2008 12:33pm
Just using an image editing program, I think it was FireWorks. I literally selected each letter and moved them closer together.

hey, that's awesome! bt, um, where do you get shrink plastic from...i've never seen it before....?
Cat Morley
Jan 25, 2008 11:07am
Try your local art & craft store, if you have no luck, buy it online!

I love this necklace though if I ever make it I might use something other then my name. I think it might look a little weird with anything over 5 letter, but hey I might be wrong.
Shivi
Jan 27, 2008 5:09am
K@ti- for our names just make the letters smaller and then it will look fine.
