You will need:
- Silicone teething beads of various colors
- Silicone letter beads
- White plastic pacifier Clips
- White polyester or nylon cord
- Bobby pin (for pushing cord through the bead)
- Scissors & tape (if the cord frays)
Directions
- Cut a 25″ piece of white polyester cord.
- One at a time, place silicone teething beads on the cord. You may need to use the bobby pin to push the cord through the bead or tape to control a frayed cord.
- Find the center of the entire piece of cord and tie a knot to create a 2.5″ loop. Slide the beads down to the knot. Then thread the needle back through the beads.
- When you get to the end, loop the cord around the base of a pacifier clip. Hold it taught, and wrap the end of the cord tightly around the base of the clip and knot. Thread the end of the cord back through a few beads (to hide the excess) and trim the end.
And there it is! A pacifier clip that doubles as a teething toy. Be sure that the beads are secure on the cord and that the knots are tied tight. These beads are perfect for teething but post a choking threat if detached.
