Message in a Bottle

Project Info:

Level: Beginners

Estimated time: 3-4 Hours

Project and Sample by Kate Richbourg

It’s an age-old question: if you were stranded on a deserted island, what would you bring with you? Our answer? Beads! With our new Itsy Bottle components, you could even send a message in a bottle out to sea…or just use it in this fab necklace.
Kate was so inspired by the Itsy Bottle and other unique components from Nunn Design that she created a one-of-a-kind treasure necklace worthy to display in a gallery.
Message in a Bottle is a statement necklace that is easy to make and will flex your creative muscles with its mixed metals, assortment of techniques, and variety of materials. We consider this an All Levels Project and will take about 3-4 hours to complete.
