Camp Fenton Fallon DIY Session with Dana Lorenz

All my memories of making jewelry came back when I stepped foot into jewelry designer Dana Lorenz’s Fenton Fallon shop at Freeman Alley on Tuesday night. A lucky group of fashion bloggers were invited to her shop to make our own Fenton Fallon-inspired necklaces, we were given a quick tutorial then we all got to ‘work’. Piles of raw materials were placed on the tables for us to choose from and there were lots from chains to pearls to spikes to crystals! There were also lots of temptations on the table, jelly beans, cookies, caramel popcorn and drinks were there as we worked our crafty hands. I was a bit overwhelmed at first but quickly snapped out of it once I picked out some raw materials, it ain’t easy I gotta tell you. It was fun times and I got to bring home a one-of-a-kind “nitro:licious x Fenton Fallon” DIY necklace ha! Mad props to Dana for creating such amazing pieces, it seriously takes crafty hands and a creative mind. Check out her designs at www.danalorenz.com.
