Today we decided to make some super cute Shopkins necklaces with a few of our duplicates. If you want to make your own all you will need is:
Shopkins of your choice,
Screw bails,
Pendant bails,
Glue,
Pliers,
Chain or ready made necklaces
and an organza bag to make a super cute gift.
First you need to take one of the screw bails and hold between the pliers. Hold your Shopkin in the opposite hand to the pliers. Find the centre of the top and CAREFULLY push the tip screw into the top of the Shopkin and screw in to place, remove the screw bail to leave the hole.
Take your glue, I use E6000 but any good glue will work.
Holding the screw bail in the pliers, gently dip into a small amount of glue - remember less is more. You only need a small amount to hold the screw in place.
Screw the bail back into the hole that you have previously made and leave your new Shopkins charm to dry.
You should have a super sweet little charm like this one.
Once the screw bail is set in place, take your pendant bail and attach to the ring at the top of your new Shopkins charm, making sure the bail is the right way around.
Then finally take your chain or necklace of
choice and attach the
charm to it.
To make your necklace into a super cute gift simply pop the
necklace into a sweet little organza bag and Hey Presto you have a super sweet,
handmade with love Shopkins necklace to give to your BFF :)
