How to Attach Brooch to Pearl Necklaces?

I want to create a 50's inspired multi-strand necklace using a brooch and 2 to 3 pearl strand necklaces for my wedding day. Most vintage inspired necklaces are so expensive that lead me to think that I might be able to DIY for cheaper.

Attaching a Pearl Brooch
by: Marilyn

The 2 strands of pearls you are thinking about using would be great and work at accommodating the vintage brooch. Placement of the pin will be important for the drape of your necklace.

Sometimes the older brooches have a little oh, what I would call a swivel pin in the middle of the pin clasp itself.
If it does you can easily

1- turn the brooch the way you would like it to look
2- and just open the pin
3- slip it straight down, which would be vertical to your de'collectage, or low neckline of your dress but, in the area below the neck,
4- and secure your pin!

That should do it and it will look absolutely stunning . . . trust me.

Much Joy, Love & Happiness
