Instructions: 

Step 1

Grab 1 side of a plastic ball and fill it with various sequin shapes and pom poms. Don’t forget to add in a jingle bell or 2!

Step 2

Once you’ve filled your 1 side of the ball, get the other side and connect the two together. Make sure the top 2 holes are aligned for easy stringing in the next step. 

Step 3

Get your metallic twine and cut it to a desired necklace length. Remember to leave some extra length for knotting. It’s always an easy fix to make your necklace shorter if needed. 

Step 4

Start stringing your beads onto your metallic twine. If you want to work in a specific pattern, it might be easier to lay out the bead pattern before you start stringing. Random patterns are always fun too, so let your imagination go wild! 

Step 5

Once you’ve strung half the number of beads, you’re going to string your ball on so it will be the center of your necklace.

Step 6

Continue stringing your beads on the other side of the ball. You want to add beads until you have an equal number on either side of the ball.

Step 7

After stringing all your beads, check your necklace length. If you’re happy with the length, tie your string ends together. A double knot will be best to make sure it’s secure.

Step 8

Lastly, cut a small piece of washi tape and place it on your ball to help ensure both sides stay connected.
