Apple Necklace
Make an apple-shaped necklace using a pom-pom.


Materials Needed:

  • Brown Pony Bead
  • Green Felt or Construction Paper
  • Red Pom-pom (1-2 inches)
  • Glue
  • Yarn or String
Instructions:
The red (you could also use green or yellow) pom-pom will be your apple, the brown bead will be the stem, and you will use the green felt or paper to make leaves.

Cut out small leaf shapes from the green paper or felt. You want it to look like 2 leaves attached in the middle. Kind of like this (you will probably want them smaller than this picture though!):

Once your leaves are cut, put some glue in the middle of one side of the leaf shape as shown in the picture above, and stick the leaf shape on the pom-pom. Now, put a dab of glue on the side of the brown bead (Do not cover or block the holes!) and stick it to the center of the leaf shape to make the apple's stem.

Once all the glue has dried, you can string the bead onto a piece of yarn or string and you have your very own apple necklace!
