Roberta Rabbit here with an awesome summer craft! I’m going to show you how to make an ice cream cone necklace – it’s cute and fun!
What you need:
Brown cardstock paper, craft glue, gold sparkles, round beads in pastel colors, small round red bead (optional), flat head pins, needle-nose pliers, string, extra beads (optional)
What you do:
- Cut out a 1.5 inch circle from the brown cardstock. Make a slice halfway to the middle point, like this:
2. Starting at the cut, wrap the circle around to make a cone. Glue it as you do this.
3. Trim the top of the cone. Make a swirl of glue around the cone and dip the cone in gold sparkles, if you like.
4. Stick your flat-head pin through the base of the cone (the flat part should be at the tip of the cone). Stick one or two beads on top of it.
5.Use the needle-nose pliers to make a loop at the top of the flat-head pin (you can get a grown up to help with this).
6.Put the ice cream cone on a piece of string and add extra beads, if you like.
7.Tie the two ends of the string together and slip the necklace over your head. Now you’re really ready for summer!
My little sister will luv this 4 her birthday in July! It is darling! :)
That is a terrific craft! Thanks for sharing, Roberta! All the best! MDIChickadee
Wonderful! I will definitely make these!;)
I gotta make this!!!!!!!!
This looks like fun. I think I’ll try it with some of the little rug rats around her. It should keep them busy and give me a break.
Oh, it’s not really ice cream. :(
Yeah, wouldn’t THAT be awesome! I like it though.
It WOULD be awesome! I thought the same thing. (*(*dragonfish*)*)
Well duh. That necklace would not last very long unless you lived in a freezer lol XD
Yeah, SarahHorseLover, or unless you lived at the north pole, or the south pole. But if it was real icecream, it wouldn’t last long even if you WERE in a freezer, you’d eat it! Still, a real icecream necklace would give a whole new meaning to “wearing you food”, though! Giggles, bad joke, I know. ~~O~~SapphireSea~*~*~
