Twig Necklace

I have seen several of these cute little branch/twig necklaces. I tried to make my own. Since its near Easter, I used a branch from a dogwood tree. The dogwood is said to be the tree used to build the cross that Jesus was crucified on.


First I will show you the twig necklace that inspired me to make one.

$60.00 from cursive design.com .

 And below are the ones I made and it cost me nothing.

This was my first attempt at this. I think they turned out to pretty good, kinda, and I think the green one will go with my Easter dress the best.

    How fun and rustic! Is the chain connected by the little metal loops tied through with the thread?

      I played around with the loops forever. Thats what I had the most trouble with. But on the yellow one, I wrapped wire around the branch and looped the wire with pliers, then wrapped the yarn. The greenish one, I wrapped the yarn first then since it was skinny, I was able to hook two loops and clip and squeeze one around the branch leaving the other one for the chain.
