Crochet With Heart Necklace

Blue Heart Necklace with Silver Crocheted Backing

Description: Alice created this beautiful and elegant piece by wrapping a faux gemstone up with crocheted silver thread. How cool!


With ths one, I stacked and glued 3 pieces of heavy paper together. Then, I punched small holes around and used a 2.75mm crochet hook to crochet 2 rows of crochet around the heart shape.

I then glued the fake heart gemstone to the crocheted backing, cut a heart shape for the back and painted it silver, and pasted it on the back to cover up the back holes of the crocheted backing.

I sealed the paint with mod podge, then doubled the strand of the silver crochet thread and crocheted a chain for the necklace part. Then, I fastened a clasp and jump ring to the end of the chain and made a loop in the half part of the chain.

I drew it through the top hole of the heart backing and tied it on.

It was inexpensive to make and it looks nice.
