St. Patrick’s Day Blog Hop – Rainbow Tassel Necklace

STPD-Blog-Hop-Collage-3

Thank you for joining me for this St. Patrick’s Day Blog Hop! We’ve got 17 crazy talented bloggers sharing St. Patrick’s Day crafts – on a budget! Each blogger was given a budget of no more than $10 and challenged to create a St. Patrick’s Day craft using items from the dollar store or dollar section of their local stores.

Let’s meet these crafty bloggers!

Rainbow Tassel Necklace

I have to admit that I bent the rules for this challenge. I only used one item from the Dollar store with the remaining items purchased at the craft store using coupons, which helped keep me at $10. However, I have a good reason for breaking the rules – my daughter needed something green to keep her pinch-free on St. Patrick’s Day. And since green clothing isn’t her fave, we decided to create a Rainbow Tassel Necklace! St. Patrick's Day Rainbow Tassel Necklace

Supplies:

  • gold necklace (I used a 24″)
  • 1 – plastic gold coin
  • 2 – 7mm gold jump rings
  • green, orange, red, yellow, blue, and violet embroidery thread or keep it simple and just use green (buy the bulk bags and use a 50% coupon if available)
  • drill with 1/16 drill bit
  • flat nose pliers
  • scissors

Directions:

drill gold coin

  • Use a ruler and find the center of the gold coin.
  • Use the felt pen and mark two points near the edge on the top and bottom of the coin.
  • Drill through the two marks. Set aside.

rainbow tassel

  • Cut a piece of cardboard 2″ x 4″ or use the cardboard from the jump ring/necklace packaging.
  • Tape the green thread onto the front of the cardboard.
  • Wrap the thread around the cardboard 5 times around. Tape the end down to the back of the cardboard and cut.
  • Repeat the above two steps with each thread color.
  • Cut an 8″ length of green thread and run it under all the thread loops. Tie in a tight knot.

  • Slide all the loops off the cardboard. Set aside.
  • With 12″ of green thread, create a loop. Place the loop near the top of the tassel, with the round side down towards the bottom.
  • Decide how big you want the top of your tassel. Start the first wrap the free end of the green thread towards the bottom of the tassel about 5 – 6 times. Take the end of the thread and pull it tight through the loop. Knot and tuck under the wrapped threads.

  • Cut through the thread loops.
  • Trim the bottom of the tassel to even the thread lengths.
  • Add a jump ring to the top of the coin. Close with pliers.
  • Add a jump ring through the top tie of the tassel and add to the bottom hole of the coin. Close with pliers.

    Such a great idea! We don’t have too much in green either so this is a good alternative.

    She definitely won’t get pinched, but her friends may all want you to make them for them! The necklace is adorable, so glad you joined us for the hop!

    What a fun idea! These would be so great to make for the kids for St. Patrick’s Day. (Also, thanks for the awesome pictures on how you make tassels… I’ve been needing that.)
