Pom Pom Bib Necklace Tutorial
{totally anthro-esk}
Do you remember my Pom Pom headband tutorial a while back?
It was kinda a big deal {hehe}.
So, after a craft fest with my girl Brittany, I was inspired to turn those Pom’s into an anthropologie inspired necklace. Brittany used this similar process to create a Pom Pom brooch.
These are crazy easy to make!
Pom Pom Bib Necklace Supplies:
Felt {approx 1 sq foot}
Cotton fabric in the color of your choice
Fabric scissors
Necklace chain, pearls, etc. {I ended up using a different chain than the one pictured}
Hot Glue gun
First, cut out 5 small 1-1.5 inch felt circles.
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. Don’t worry if the circles aren’t perfect–it won’t make a bit of difference.
Now, we are ready to make the pom poms.
Take one of the fabric circles and scrunch it from the center.
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 pom’s on top of the remaining felt in the arrangement you want your necklace.
Glue down each pom pom {except the top two}.
Here is the chain I ended up using. I bought it at Michael’s.
Glue the ends of the chain onto the last two pom poms.
I glued the chain about an inch down the pom so that it’s extra sturdy.
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 one in every color.
Happy Crafting!
That is really cute!!!

Hi Ashley! I'm very new to your blog, but my Mom sent me this tutorial. I'm going to try the necklace this weekend!
I actually have a blog of my own and shared a photo and your site today. I don't think I've gotten such a huge response so quickly before! Right now 49 people have either liked or reblogged it. I thought I'd share with you what a hit you've been over on Tumblr.

Oh, I love this! I can't believe that I have never seen your blog before (and now I don't know where I found the link), but I have a bunch of your posts opened in different tabs to catch up. =) And P.S., you have the most beautiful teeth I have ever seen!

Most brides want to go to the Wedding Dresses stores to pick wedding dresses. There are lots of styles for them to choose, which is the reason why brides love to go there. You can find styles like Sheath Wedding Dresses, Ball Gown Wedding Dresses,Beach Wedding Dress,Mermaid Wedding Dresses,Bridesmaid Wedding Dresses, even Mother of the Bride Dresses. But to try on all can be a tough job.And it is really time-consuming.
I love this necklace! My friends and I get together randomly and have sleepover craft nights. This is definitely going to be our next craft! Thank you! Love your blog!
Thanks for such a great tutorial! I LOVED it!

I do love the manner in which you have framed this particular challenge and it really does provide me personally some fodder for consideration.

Anyway, thank you for this outstanding point and though I can not necessarily go along with it in totality, I respect your point of view.
Good blog! I genuinely love how it’s easy on my eyes and the data are well written. I am wondering how I might be notified whenever a new post has been made. I have subscribed to your rss feed which ought to do the trick! Have a nice day!

My first craft–yay!

Thankyou for this post it has been very informative i hope to see more cool posts from you
I like Your Article about Pom Pom Bib Necklace TUTORIAL {LMM finally gets her craft on} – Little Miss Momma Perfect just what I was searching for! .
I agree with your Pom Pom Bib Necklace TUTORIAL {LMM finally gets her craft on} – Little Miss Momma, superb post.
I really liked the article, and the very cool blog
I feel like you are getting a lot of spam in your comments lol.
ANYWAYS, I am back. Posted just a bit ago about making this and loving it. So much so that when I was approached with thinking of an event for a kids group I am a part of at my church, I suggested a crafting event and when I showed the director your pictures, she LOVED it.
Only problem is this is an event where we will have a variety of ages and we worry about the glue guns for the younger ones. I am looking into an alternative craft, but do you think this project would work with regular glue or another type of glue? Do you have any crafts for children along these lines?
Thank you SO much if you have any ideas!
LOVE this necklace – thank you for the tutorial! I made it as part of my Pinterest Project – I needed something to show my team spirit for my boys’ football teams! http://fabulouslydomesticbyambrosia.blogspot.com/2011/09/pinterest-project-day-16-pom-pom-bib.html
