Materials:
2 ˝ yards ribbon, cord or plastic lacing
1 key ring or lanyard hook
82 light green pony beads (Shamrock) or lime
green (Dublin)*
3 black pony beads
˝ yard of 1/8 inch green ribbon (cut in
half for bow)
28 green seed beads (to make the shamrock)
˝ yard of 32 inch gauge wire
*Note: The only difference between the two bears is color and bow.
Special Instructions: Begin with
the first bead of the head. Then make the ears and continue
with the pattern. Make the shamrock out of the seed beads as
shown
and hot glue onto the bear. Insert both pieces
of ribbon through the last bead in the row of 4 beads (under the
nose). Tie a bow and glue into place. Trim ends if
necessary.
To make shamrock: Fold wire in half and
add on 7 beads. With both ends together, lace on one
bead. This is the center bead. On one strand lace on 7
beads and do the
same for the other side. Go back through
the center bead forming a loop on each side. With both ends
together, lace on 5 beads. Using only one strand, lace on
the last bead.
Twist ends together and trim. You can add
a little bend in the stem. Also, you can form the leaves of
the shamrock into hearts by gently pushing in the center bead of
each leaf.
Hot glue finished shamrock into place. You can
also just use a shamrock sticker.
