All The Better To See You With My Dear

So for Mama I made a glasses chain so that she wouldn't lose her specs as she goes about her daily biz. Very simple concept and incredibly easy to make. All I had to do was choose the colour (red) which suits wee Mum's red trainers and add a few silver rose beads and hey presto!

I added a couple of dangly details (the wee Made With Love tag) and two butterfly wings hanging back to back to give a bit of texture and add another dimension to the piece (that sounds very space-y - adding "another dimension!").
Anyway it's a hit with me as it's speedy to make, pretty and practical!

Beautiful!

  1. The chain is really lovely, but only today I broke the leg off the glasses!! I superglued it together but time will tell if it's a good job or not.
    The clain will be quickly moved to another pair of specs if my glue job is unsuccessful.
    Love it madly. Thanks Poog. Mama xox
