Here is my Macrame-Style necklace that I created so that I could wear and carry my favorite crystal with me during the day! I was carrying it around in my sports bra (pretty uncomfortable I know) because I have a severe lack of clothing that have pockets! I learned the trick of carrying things in my bra from my mom (lol, she calls it her second purse), but I found that people thought i was pretty weird with my hand down/up my shirt to get my crystal out. Sooo.. I look up how to create a holder! I found this site Sustainability in Style ( sustainabilityinstyle.com/diy-gemstone-necklace/ ) which taught me how to work with my friendship thread that I have lying all around. Thankfully it was pretty easy to do! I still have to go to a craft store to get some stronger material, but i think it is working pretty well for now! what do you guys think?

aw man that's such a good idea! i've been carrying crystals in my bra for ages because i don't have the skill to make them into necklaces (and people also gave me weird looks when i would stick my hand down my bra to try and rearrange them), but this seems super simple to do even with my lack of skill! thanks for posting this, i'll definitely be giving it a go

I've actually been really into wire wrapping crystals and such, I've even started selling them (as well as body scrubs and bath bombs) but I've always wanted to know how to do that basket like design with string.

Super pretty! Good job! And I bet its a whole lot more comfortable then wearing them in your bra all day
