DIY Leather Chevron Necklace

I found this neat and very simple necklace diy project on another blog (here) and just had to try it and of course, share it! So I made this one as a Christmas gift for my sister-in-law. 


What you need:

Scissors
Necklace chain ( I used 18")
Pen
Leather Scrap
Chevron pattern shape
Pin or nail
Metal necklace rings

I chose to use the thickest leather scrap I could find so it would be sturdy and keep its shape. 

1.) Trace and cut out 3 chevron shapes.

2.) Poke holes on the corners of each shape, except the bottom one.. only poke holes on the top corners of that shape. I had to hammer a nail through my leather because it was so thick.

3.) Join the chevron shapes together with the metal necklace rings and attach the chain to the top rings.

It should look like the picture below. And that's all there is to it! Make it your own and try it using other leather colors and chain sizes!
