jimmyrigged my own adina-style necklace
Permalink Closed


Some of you remember that my husband is on his 2nd wedding ring now (he lost weight since the wedding, and titanium can't be sized). Anyway, as I was packing, I found it -- and I have been trying to figure out what to do with it. I don't want to throw it out, since it was the actual ring we used in our ceremony.


So...I bought two silver chains from Target and made it into a necklace. Whaddya think?

Looks fabulous! What a great idea.
I'd like to find a way to make my baby ring suitable for my son...

I've been looking at those Adina necklaces for a while now -- I'm on the lookout for a nice, everyday necklace. I love your idea! My mom gave me a ring that I wore as a baby (it doesn't even fit on my pinky), so now I can use it! Thanks

You just slipknot it on either side. Make sure the chain is closed, then take the non-clasp end, loop it around the ring, and tuck the rest through. Like this:
