DIY neon & wood pendant

When I saw this wooden bead necklace tutorial at “A girl who makes”, I couldn’t resist making one for myself. I like simple necklaces, so I choose to make a single wooden 20mm bead on a thin faux-gold chain.

I bought the wooden bead and a pink neon paint at a local craft store here in Berlin. I already had a chain (it had a very ugly heart pendant on it, which I removed).

I’m very happy with the results and I like how the neon pink stands out on a plain white or black shirt.  I still have some wooden beads left, so maybe I’ll try painting in other colors.
