The flowers are made from 100% silk sari ribbon - which I'm completely obsessed with - all except the center flower, which is a layered style flower made from all different types of fabrics stacked on top of each other. The center flower also has a miniature antique/vintage pearl brooch sewn on - I love upcycling vintage jewelry. The necklace portion is made from two different old necklaces that I pieced together and hand-stitched down onto the "bib" portion, so it has a double-strand effect.
Very fun! Very easy! Make one!! (for yourself!)

I absolutely love the necklace and the silk flowers that you made this from. Did you ever post the tutorial for this? I would love to have a go myslef.
