Fabric Whites Necklace

Torn strips of various shades of white fabric... rolled... stitched in place... and made into a necklace for College Daughter. My poor baby that had four impacted wisdom teeth cut out for her Spring Break deserved a treat to take back to Athens. She is skinny and the necklace is not as big as it looks in these close-ups! I'm finishing up two more for my Etsy shop. It looked so pretty and "springy" on her...

I'm linking this post to "White Wednesday" at the Faded Charm Cottage, "It's so Very Thrifty" at It's So Very Cheri, "Strut Your Stuff Thursday" at Somewhat Simple, "Get Your Craft On" Thursday at Life at Lori, "Make It, Wear It" at The Train to Crazy , It's a Hodgepodge Life" Friday at It's a Hodgepodge Life and "Saturday Nite Special" and Funky Junk Interiors. Hop on over to these sites and check out this week's projects for inspiration!

They are gorgeous! Lucky daughter to have a Mom who is so talented. All the other college girls will be jealous. But unlucky her having all 4 removed at one time. You are right Mom...poor baby! Hope she is feeling better by now. Hww
