There’s no faster or more satisfying restyle of existing jewelry than making an embellishment and attaching it to a favorite necklace or bracelet. It happens like magic with a small spring ring clasp, some beads and a bit of chain. It’s called an enhancer.
The spring ring clasp allows you to clip it on, take it off or move it somewhere else! How fun is that?
