Pom Pom Necklace

 
 This post was originally posted for Elegance and Elephants "Knock off" series, but we are bringing it home today.
 
My only regret when I made theses is that I didn't buy ten packs of those cool disco-like styrofoam balls.  I would love to use them a million other ways.....


I am totally in love with anything Olive Juice clothing does and this darling pom pom necklace is no exception.  Simple, childlike but still so darling on an outfit.


I also figured out that it would also be the perfect mom-and-me project for a budding-crafty-seven-year-old.  And it was.  She had so much fun picking out the bead colors and the "sparkly" beads (which I am kind of in love with myself).  They are like tiny disco balls and sparkle up a storm.

The cost of the original necklace is $17.50 but we made 2 necklaces for just under $6 using coupons.  (I love a good savings.)  Although, if you did the felted wool poms yourself I am sure you could save even more.

Here's how we made them....









 
A simple, handmade gift that any girl would love.

  1. Elizabeth thank you for this great idea. I have a 7 year old girl birthday party coming soon and it's 'build-it' theme but I need an extra craft. THIS IS IT. Love it.
