Normally “before and afters” on The Anthology involve hideous vintage pieces that I have my tailor rework (see Exhibit A, B, and especially C).
But this, my friends, is a whole new ballgame.
I’m taking two once-loved pieces of my own — a black-and-white silk scarf I bought in Paris and a plastic chain necklace I bought somewhere far less glamourous — and I’m going to make my own “after”. All by myself. I’ll share it with you soon (as long as it doesn’t look like a 6-year-old made it).
P.S. I whipped up my own “After” once before and I kind of love how it turned out. Let’s see if lightening strikes twice.

So excited to see how it turns out! I want to know if I’m right about what you’re planning on doing ;)
