What You'll Need:
A walnut, drill with 2 drill bits, sharp kitchen knife, nail polish, and a necklace.

How to Make It:
1. Start with the walnut flat side down. Split the walnut down the middle with the knife. You are not cutting into the walnut shell, it is more of a smack, hitting down on knife to open the walnut.

2. Take the insides of the walnut out and flip it flat side down. With a small drill bit (1/16,) drill at an angle. Start by going slow and be patient, it takes a little while. Once the small hole is made take the larger drill bit (1/8) and enlarge your hole.

3. Next, use nail polish to paint the inside of your locket. Use clear coat polish to cover the outer shell and give it a nice shine. Insert a photo into the locket. The polish can work as the glue. ( We also used a small piece of double-sided tape.)

4. Thread a chain necklace or suede cord through the hole."
