As the aftermath of Chithiram collection, this month's tutorial will be on how to make a safety pin necklace. This is the same necklace that I use with my safety pin and galaxy of musicians necklace of my chithiram collection. The only difference is that, in this tutorial I am attaching lengths of chain to make it a - over the head necklace, whereas the galaxy of musicians has a pendant and the closure clasp...But the necklace is cool worn either which way...


This time, the tutorial will be a video tutorial - Which I developed with a local production house for a segment called "Art all the way". If you do not understand any instruction or would like more clarity, please write in to me...
