How To Make A Handkerchief Pendant Necklace

Our Handkerchief Pendant Necklace is a beautiful way to upcycle your favorite handkerchief.

I love DIY jewelry. It’s one of my favorite things to make. I could spend hours down the jewelry isle at my local craft store looking at all the beads, charms, and pendants.

I saw these amazing gold bezel pendants in my weekly craft store trip and wondered what I could make with them. I’ve seen people make similar ones I had in mind with craft paper but I knew I had some beautiful flowered handkerchiefs at home that would be perfect for the project. They had silver, gold and bronze in a bunch of different shapes like square, oval and circles. They get way fancier than these but I wanted my handkerchief to stand out so I chose the gold circles.

Once I got started I realized how easy they are to make and now I’m going to make more in different colors with different handkerchiefs. This one is defiantly a great addition in my jewelry collection. But if your needing a gift idea, bridesmaid jewelry, or just a necklace to match a certain outfit, than these Handkerchief Pendant Necklaces are perfect.
