Had had this crazy idea one day to make a necklace out of old Christmas tree lights. It was crazy alright, as it was tedious.
I started by cutting the lights from the wires.
Used a Dremel tool to drill the holes. (My Favorite Tool)
I had placed a few lights in a hobby vice to hold the lights while drilling them. DO NOT TRY TO HOLD THEM!
Fished craft floral wire into the holes and twisted the wire with a small pliers into a small circle.( I didn't have large enough jump rings)
Used a small snap ring to attach it to the chain.
I just love the way it looks. I get a lot of complements and have made several.
