who needs a trip to the mall now ?

DIY ; do it yourself.

Imitation Mercura 1987 Sunglasses.
what you'll need :
-pair of sunglasses ; [ preferably flat top] . -sooper glueee .
-light weight chain; [thick, cuban link chains work best] .
[FYI: you can get those type of chains at any costume jewelry store, forever 21, wet seal etc . . ]

STEPS:

Disclaimer: This project is NOT easy. Be SUPER careful to not get superglue on your hands, or on the lenses (I learned this the hard way, nail polish remover can take it off). If I were to do this project again, I’d suggest putting tape over the lenses just to be sure you don’t glue them.

1. Put a thin layer of superglue on the top of the glasses, where you will be gluing the chain, this way the chain can bond to the glue, as opposed to the very difficult feat of gluing it to the smooth plastic

2. Start to glue the chain links together, where they would naturally fall. I glued 5 together to begin to form a straight line, this also makes it a lot easier to control individually gluing the rest of the links on. 3. Once you have a few links together, glue your section to the middle of the glasses. When the chain is laying flat there are small oval-shaped flat sections, you want to put the glue on each of these sections and hold the chain to the glasses until it completely dries (around 30 seconds).

4. Begin to individually glue on the rest of the links. Continue to glue using the flat parts of the links, and if they are not staying secure, try continuing to glue the links together.

5. Continue to glue each link until you reach the edge of the glasses. It’s really important that each link is completely dry before you move onto the next one, or else they’ll just fall off and you’ll have to start over, and let me tell you, that’s really frustrating.

6. Let your glasses sit overnight before you wear them, even though they seem completely dry, you want to make sure nothing will fall off before you debut them. And if you aren’t confident enough to wear these super-flashy glasses on your face, try wearing them as a necklace .
