Frequently Asked Questions...
How do you make necklace shapes out of Lucite or Acrylic? Is there like a kit or something?
Besides acrylic paint 
Answer:
heat. Carefully applied heat. Lay out lucite or acrylic pieces on a heat resistant form, one that you want the lucite to be shaped like. For instance a metal bowl. As you apply heat, the acrylic will melt, using a tweezers or another tool hold the piece steady till it cools into the shape you want.
If you are talking about the choker shape of a necklace itself, you can pour two part acrylic into a mold, or cut lucite to shape.
