This turquoise vintage necklace is particularly dear to me as it's made from a piece of my mum's wedding dress.
My mum kindly gave me her wedding dress to make my jewelry, so this necklace is part of my history.
The dress is from 1966 so it's a genuine Vintage piece. You can see my parents on their wedding day in the last picture (by the way, they're still happily married!).
I can't tell you how proud I am about this collection, and most important of all, my mum loves how I upcycled her dress!
I cut the macramé designs, hand dyed it using turquoise batik colour, then I hardened it with non toxic products.
The necklace is enriched with a white glass bead.
