DIY body chain harness


So I know this trend has been around for ages, but procrastination is my speciality. I thought I'd try a harness design that is a bit different from the typical Erin Wasson style that's all over the blogosphere. This one's inspired by the blow-your-mind-beautiful designs of Dion Lee.



Get:
About 2m of chain. (I bought 5m for $8 on eBay.)
Jump rings. ($2.50 at Spotlight.)
Clasp. (I used one from an old necklace.)
Pliers.
Chain cutters.

1. Drape the chain around your neck and determine the approximate length you want for the main chain. This will be SO much easier if you use a mannequin (dead or alive; I used my brother!). Cut it, and attach the clasp and jump ring at the bottom.
2. Cut the smaller pieces and attach them. Easy as.





I might attach more smaller bits later. We'll see.

xoxo,
Coco
