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 Hot glue gun *Note: The only difference between the two bears is color and bow.
Special Instructions:
Begin with the first bead of the head.

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

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.
