St. Patrick’s Day will be here before you know it! Get into the spirit of this fun holiday and create a felt shamrock necklace! This is a simple DIY project that looks like a million bucks…or at least a pot of gold.
Use the simple printable pattern to create a necklace full of shamrocks or a sweet pair of earrings.
Here’s how you can create one for yourself…
Supplies:
- Wool felt
- Gold chain
- Gold findings
- Gold Metallic Embroidery Floss
- Embroidery Needle
- Sharp Scissors
- Jewelry pliers
- Jewelry wire cutting tool
Cut out two shamrocks using your shamrock pattern. Then use your gold embroidery floss to backstitch all the way around the shamrock. {watch my how to backstitch video here}
Trim the floss and trim around the outside of the shamrock to make the shape just right.
Using a small hole punch I made a hole at the top of my shamrock.
I added a couple finding and attached it to the chain using my jewelry making pliers.
Then I picked the perfect length of chain, cut it and added the clasp.
You can download my shamrock pattern to use…I have three sizes so you can choose what’s best for your project.
