How to recreate at home a multicolor chain necklace for summer - A creative and fun way to do upcycling

Summer is coming and we have to inaugurate it with the right outfit and accessories, better if sustainable; the best is if made by you with waste or recycled materials. The solution is the multicolor necklace chain. Simple but effective, and handmade at home in a few minutes. All you will need is one of those white and red plastic safety chains, which are usually found attached to traffic poles, used to delimit and protect passage or work spaces. From these chains we can create a super cool necklace, colorful and fresh enough to be shown off in this hot season.

STEP 1

Start by cutting the chain links alternately. One will be cutted and the other not, in this way you can avoid cutting them all. Cut as many depending on how long you want the necklace or bracelet to be.

STEP 2

Choose the colors that the necklace will have, armed with a brush and color the links with the varnish. Paint one side first, let it dry for 20-30 minutes, and switch to the other side.

STEP 3

Now create the necklace by fitting the links together. Start with an open (cut) link and then one that is not open, and one that is open again; continue alternately until you reach the length that you planned. Just make sure you end up with two cutted links so you can put it on easily.
