test run.


thanks to my new obsession,
my monday was full of fun crafts.



soo fun and SOOO simple!!

supplies:

Felt {approx 1 sq foot}
Cotton fabric in the color of your choice
Fabric scissors
Necklace chain or pearls
Hot Glue gun


first, cut out 5 circles of felt, about 1 - 1.5 inches


now cut out bunches and bunches of fabric circles {same size as the felt circles}. i use the felt circles as a template for the fabric circles. and to save time, I stacked my fabric and cut out about 8 circles at a time. and don't worry if they are not perfect. this turns out great because of these imperfections.







now put a small dot of glue on the center of the circle and bunch up.
apply a drop of glue to the bottom of the scrunched fabric circle and place in the middle of the felt. continue this process until you have covered the entire felt circle with scrunched fabric circles. then repeat that process on the remaining felt circles until you have 5 mini pom poms.



place pom poms on top of the remaining felt in the arrangement you want your necklace. glue down each pom pom {except the top two}. glue the ends of the chain onto the last two pom poms. then glue down your last two poms onto the felt.


Now trim the felt around the pom poms until you're left with only the necklace.



i think i will make a navy one next.

there ya go lovelies.

enjoy.
