I saw this while browsing my google reader, which I'm still thoroughly addicted to.
These are called Sweetheart Necklaces. Aren't they cute??
I made one for my niece Audrey and one for Tanya's little girl Kayla. They were super simple to make. I made them yesterday while Charlie was working late, and I left them on the cookie sheet when I went to bed, and thought... nah... he won't try to eat them. Well, I was wrong! Oopsie... I did not follow the instructions exactly, I added food coloring to make them pink. I did not paint them. I used a red sharpie for their names then used my trustie Modge Podge to seal them. Then I used my cotton yarn to make the necklace. I thought I had some nice ribbon, but could not find it.... ribbon would have been nicer, but I used what I had. Then the dilemma was, how do I string them... you can see I tried two methods and I'm not sure which one I like better.
I'm going to take these w/me to Tanya's today for the Hiller family farewell open house. I can't believe they are leaving the country for three years!!!!!!!! I'm starting to get really upset about it... UGH!
