Shamrock Necklace

St. Patrick's Day Jewelry



   This cute shamrock necklace can be made very easily and is very festive for St. Patrick's Day. This craft is perfect for school age children, and is inexpensive to make. The necklace looks like a shamrock, with a jingle bell as each leaf. A green chenille stem finishes off the clover. If you use small jingle bells, you can make small dangle earrings to match!
