d.i.y. neon necklace

Ever the procrastinator, I pushed my hours of work aside to attend to more urgent matters: the D.I.Y. I came across that I could not get out of my head. We all crave neon from time to time. But until I have the budget of a lawyer and not a law student, I can't go on a DANNIJO neon rampage at the slightest whim.
What I could do, however, is venture to the nearest drugstore and pick up a bottle of nail polish..


payless chain and crystal necklace (similar style here), sally hansen insta dry nail polish in lightening (available here)


Combine said nail polish with a cheap necklace (fact: the nail polish cost more than the necklace -
Payless accessories FTW) - and there we go! Neon craving satisfied. Best part is?
I can always paint over it if I wish. Endless possibilities, all for $7.58. Seriously.
