DIY Pretty Ponies Necklace

Pretty Ponies Necklace

The first Saturday in May around here means one thing! It’s Kentucky Derby time! In celebration, I’m excited to share with you these Horse Necklaces that would make great party favors!

 The city of Louisville rolls out the red carpet once a year and welcomes the world.  The entire 2 weeks leading up to the Derby is full of lots of fun local events, it’s truly the best time of the year to be in Kentucky.

These necklaces are VERY easy and inexpensive to make and would be fun favors for your Derby party. They would also be great for the kids to wear to school Derby week.   My daughter is going to wear one when we go to Dawn at the Downs this week. I’ll be sure to share a bit more about that later this week.

Instructions:

Derby Party Ideas

Using your poker tool, poke a hole in the back of the horse. It does not need to be very deep but should be wide enough to start your eye hook.

DIY Party Favors

Insert the eye hook into the hole you just started.

Horse Party Favors

Glue a paper flower on.  You can go crazy if you like at this point… use all kinds of fun embellishments.

Pony Party Favors

Cut a piece of bamboo cording to length and loop it through the eye hook. Then just tie it off at the end.

  1. These are super cute! I’ve seen a couple of your ideas for a Derby Party and it’s wonderful! My girls (twins) were born on Oaks day last year and that means that their first birthday is Derby Day!!! We are planning a Derby birthday party for them! Thank you for the great ideas and tips! Can’t wait to begin working on them!

  2. Would you consider a special order of these for a Derby party? I live in Spain and don’t have access to any craft stores to make these lovelies. Do you have an etsy page or take special orders?

  3. Awl.
    This is such a really cute idea. I have a 3 yr old great-granddaughter who moved to WY. recently and many of her mom’s and grandmother’s friends own horses. Having heard a lot about how much she enjoys riding horses you just gave me (and probably others) an excellent way to keep in touch with her and add to her latest interest.
    Thanks so very much!
    Have a great Derby month!
