Today I’m showcasing my favorite DIY decor tutorial that I’ve done all year. It’s a broken jewelry letter craft that I made for Charming Charlie (an accessory store).
This was really the coolest opportunity as I’m a huge fan of Charming Charlie. For me, they are the go-to-place for inexpensive accessories. Since I have all boys, the only person I have to dress up is myself! {{sad but true}} Since the Charming Charlie store organizes their accessories by color – it’s the easiest place for me to buy my accessories.
Watch my video for all the details on how to use broken jewelry to embellish this wood letter.
As featured on CharmingCharlie.com – This DIY decor project gives you an opportunity to use your outdated jewelry, non-functional jewelry, sentimental jewelry, jewelry you received as a gift (but would not wear), and other jewelry odds and ends.
Craft ~ Broken Jewelry Letter
For the complete tutorial on how to make this gorgeous blinged out monogram you can watch my video or head on over to the Charming Charlie blog with all the specifics.
You’ll need a letter of any size, a lot of jewelry, tin snips, and a hot glue gun. It took me 5 hours to make the first one (silver) but only 2 hours to make the second one (gold). Once you get all the jewelry cut up and figure out the design, it’s incredibly easy and zero crafting skills are required. {{wink}} Simply cut up the jewelry with the tin snips and hot glue onto the letter. That’s it!
You can hang it directly onto any wall or frame it like I did with the silver one. You can also go as elaborate or as simple as you’d like and use any size letter. This would make a gorgeous homemade gift idea. Keep it in mind for birthday presents this next year.
I would like the letter K i think its adorable and would be proud to hang it in my craft room.
I would love to have a broken jewlery letter “A” and I would hang it in my living room. I think these letters are way to amazing to hang in a bedroom, I would want mine where everyone who comes in my house could enjoy it!!!!!!!
I am OBSESSED!!! This is the cutest thing EVER! I am recently engaged, and a new homeowner! I would love the letter “M” for our new home! I would place this right in the center of our dining room! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE THIS!!!
I would select the lettet “P” – perfect for my foyer wall with other select family photos
I would love the letter ‘S’ to put in my Livingroom. I’ve got the perfect spot to the left my our entertainment center as I’ve never found just the right piece to put their yet. The ‘S’ of course stands for Sewell but also we are a blended family now for 9 years and my daughters’ last name is Stewart. We love that ‘S’ signifies us all! Thank you for the unique opportunity!
