Step one: Stamp “in case of EMERGENCY” on your blank. Start in the center with “of” and work to top and bottom. I used smaller lower case fonts for “in case of” and then did the word “EMERGENCY” in all caps with a cattywompus placement. Step two: Swipe black enamel paint across front of blank with a cotton swab. Let sit for 30 seconds, then wipe off with a soft cloth or paper towel. Step three: Use smaller side of 2-hole punch to pierce a hole in the center bottom of stamped blank. Step four: Use funnel to pour candy sprinkles into vial.
Step five: Wipe a small amount of adhesive around bottom half of cork. Use pliers to hold cork securely as you place it into vial. Step six: Place a small amount of adhesive on end of screw. Use chain nose pliers to grip loop at top of screw and slowly screw it into the top of the cork. Step seven: Connect the jar to the stamped charm and add a jump ring to top of charm. Step eight: Add chain.
That’s it! You can make this DIY Candy Stash Necklace in well under thirty minutes, just make sure you let the adhesive dry before you wear it out on the town. Oh, and don’t break this unless there’s a real emergency, or you’ll have to make another.
