Bird Nest Necklace--Check!

Last month I made the bird nest necklace that I featured in June and thought I'd show you how it turned out.  I love it!  A lot.


It was simple and quick to make, Laura's  bird nest charm tutorial is excellent!   I followed the tutorial and was able to make my first charm with some thin wire I had on hand in only 10 minutes, the time it took my kids to get ready for bed.   (Updated:  Laura has made her blog private, Sarah Ortega's tutorial is just like the one that I followed.)

The second charm I made (pictured) took more like 20 minutes to make because I was using the correct guage of wire and was more particular about how it looked. 

Don't you just love projects that look like you spent hours on them, when really you made them in a matter of minutes?  I know I do!


Thanks Laura!
