Hi everyone! I’m Erin from Thanks, I Made It. As a craft-aholic, I’m very excited to share a DIY project with you today. I wanted to go with something that was simple, required just a few materials, and (my favorite part) could easily be done while relaxing and watching a movie or TV. Doubling up on DIY and trashy TV is my favorite way to unwind at the end of the day!
Inspired by a suede ribbon wrapped necklace from Lulu Frost, I’m bringing you this newest addition to my summer jewelry collection. Keep reading to see how I made this easy DIY wrapped chain necklace.
Wrapped Chain Necklace Instructions
Tie one end of the suede lacing to the end of the chain. Feed the other end of the lace through the chain link and pull tight.
Continue wrapping each link of the chain with the lacing.
Tie off at the end of the chain. To finish your necklace, use the pliers to open the jump rings and attach the clasp.
Since it’s easy to make, try experimenting with colors and lengths for layering fun. Feeling fancy or have leftover materials? Try your hand at a bracelet like this one or this one using the same technique!
Be sure to stop by Thanks, I Made It for more of my DIY tutorials and inspirations!

That always happens to me. Sometimes I get annoyed by the price tags I see on things that can so obviously be made at home, and easily too.
lov it!
