Creating an Ice Cream Cone Necklace is easy, requires just a few supplies, and is so cute!
One of my favorite things about making this DIY necklace is that your imagination is limitless! Make them in different “flavors” with single, double, or even triple scoops on top of the cones! Best of all these pompom ice creams won’t melt!
If the summer weather doesn’t play nicely and the kids are bored while stuck inside, this is a fun craft for them to try (use a low-temp cool glue gun for kids). This craft just may stir some creative juices and before you know it, you will have a jewelry maker on your hands!

Instructions
- Cut a 2”/5cm section of burlap ribbon with scissors.
- Using needle nose pliers, roll the bottom wired edge into a tight coil. Continue to roll the wired ribbon forming the wider top of the cone with your fingers.
- Trim the cone to size with scissors and then secure the cut edge of the ribbon to the cone with glue, working carefully so as not to get burned. Press the blade of your scissors along The cut edge of the cone until the hot glue has cooled.
- Insert the jewelry eye pin into the center of the pom pom. Trim the bottom of the pin with wire cutters. Secure the cut end of the pin with a small amount of hot glue.
- Using two sets of needle nose pliers, open the jewelry jump rings by twisting at the opening in a front (right hand) and back (left hand) motion. Thread the eye pin loop onto the jump ring and close using the opposite motion.
- For some of the cones, stack two pom poms on top of each other and secure them with hot glue. Glue pom poms inside the cone.
- Cut 36”/91cm lengths of twine with scissors and then thread twine through the jump ring. Knot the necklace, so that it can easily be placed over the head of the wearer. Trim ends of twine with scissors.
