DIY Pom Pom Necklace


I saw this post on Honestly... WTF and it looks like so much fun to make one of these Nicole Akong inspired necklaces that I am sharing it with you. 


It looks fairly simple and it goes a little something like this.


You’ll need:


Start by attaching the chain to the outer edge of the pom pom trim with the jump rings. If you are using cable chain, connect a jump ring through every other link. If you are using cable chain, connect a jump ring though each link.


Once the entire length of the chain is attached to the pom pom trim, thread the cord through each jump ring.


Pick up each end of the cord and the chain will naturally fall on top of the pom pom trim. Center the pom pom and chain portion. You’ll need to attach this portion to the cord to prevent it from sliding. Add another jump ring to the first link of the chain and pierce it through the cord. Do the same with the last link.


Your new pom pom necklace is finished!!


Experiment by adding more chain, attaching different sized jump rings or using a variety of colored cord! Have fun!
