Hurricane necklace (for those who can't afford the offical thing.)
How to under cut
You will need
3 metres of red ribbon ( you won't need to use it all though, just nice to know you have wiggle room)
An Antique key ( ebay have aload, but I took this one from College ages ago for no reason, knew it would come in hand someday)
Jump Hoops and fastener( unless you are happy to just tie it)
Pliers and scissors
STEP ONE
My key had a little bit too much rust on it so I used white vinger(http://www.ehow.com/how_6312854_clean-rust-vintage-keys.html) and then a nail file.
But if your key doesn't need to derusting or you are happy with it just how it is you can skip this step and go stright on to step two.
STEP TWO
Prepare the ribbion by making it as long or short as you like the attach the fastening to the ribbion ( I forgot to do a photo of this so this is after I've put the fasteners on it )
STEP THREE
There are two ways of doing this. You can either use a jump hoop to attach the key to the ribbion or you can simply slide the key through the ribbion.
