Back in February I saw images of Amber Rose wearing a pair of vintage Chanel glasses that had a gold chain going across the top edge. I fell in love the glasses but dismissed the idea of purchasing a pair for myself. Then the other day it hit me!...DIY project!
What you'll need:
-pair of sunglasses that have a flat/straight top edge (purchased these at Forever 21)
-gold chain (1/2" seems to work the best). You can get a chain down on Canal Street or St.Marks Place but you'll pay $40. I purchased a yard of chain for $3.98 at M&J trimming.
-Super Glue
First put some glue on the flat part of the glasses, this will make it easier for the chain to adhere.
Start gluing some of the links together. I started with about 7 links.
Once the first set of links are together and pretty dry, glue this section to the glasses. Let this sit for a couple minutes so that it really adheres.
Next start gluing the remaining links together, and onto the glasses.
It's best to let the glasses dry over night... to make sure that everything is set. You don't want to have an embarrassing fashion malfunction your first wear!
