A Little Something Special for Someone Special

DIY: Hidden Message Necklace

Supplies

3 felt pieces
2 colors embroidery threads
pom pom
fabric fusion tape
scissors
tiny hole punch
Sparkling Charm Free Printable Hidden Heart Necklace Template

Directions

1. Cut out the hearts and the felt pouch templates from Free Printable Hidden Heart Necklace Template. Place the pouch and two heart templates on felt and cut out. Line the pouch template back on top of the felt and use a hole punch in template circles to create two holes. Fold the pouch in half (straight edges) and use the hole punch again inside the two holes you just made. When you unfold you will have 4 holes lined up. (See above photo.) Set aside.

2. Cut a 4 inch piece of thread and tie it around the pom pom. Pull tight! Set aside. (In photo above. Lower left corner.)

3. Using two colors of thread, cut off a 3 1/2 foot piece from each. Place them beside each other and fold them in half. Tie a knot about 2 inches from one end.

4. Tie a second knot 1 inch away from the first knot and continue to tie knots spaced about 1 inch apart until you reach the other end.

5. Lay the felt pouch in front of you. Cut two tiny pieces of of the fabric adhesive and peel one side of the backing from the tape. Place a piece of the tape in the two corners of the widest end of the felt pouch.

6. Twist the bottom up toward the top and line up holes on one side of felt. Insert the knotted threads through the holes from the back to the front. Tie a knot and pull it secure against felt. Repeat this step with the opposite side.
