Tuesday night I had the pleasure of stopping by Fenton Fallon in NYC, an amazing little boutique tucked away on the Lower Eastside in Freeman’s Alley. Hosted by owner and creator of Fenton Fallon, Dana Lorenz, guests walked in to find tables full of chains, pendants, spikes and sparkly strands…aka a DIY paradise.

I was super exhausted from the flight into NYC via red eye earlier in the day, but the intimate charm and beats from DJ Belle Du Jour (aka India Jewel Jackson, also with Glam.com) helped me perk up and get my creative on right away. The special cocktails from U’Luvka Vodka and Cookies.com treats also paid homage to a room full of stylish, happy girls. Check out how I did and all the photos after the jump.

The experience reminded me of this DIY project I did a few summers ago inspired by the lovely Bobbie Thomas. I’ve been craving a DIY project and this totally inspired me to start doing more on my blog. The difference with Camp Fenton Fallon? We basically started from scratch to create all different types of gorgeous necklaces. All you need are material, plyers and necklace hooks/clasps!

I went for a longer chain look that could be modified at the time of wear depending on my mood. The fringe strands are part of another necklace and can be removed or repositioned. I’m so drawn to blue, so naturally I snagged a blue chain. I also think it’s the type of necklace that can be worn casually, which is something very prominent in my accessories collection.

Here are some more photos including other lovely media/press at work with their creations:
