DIY Necklaces for Moms - Made from Your Kids' Stuff

The kids have been back at school for nearly a month. Are you finding yourself with time on your hands on the home front? (Yeah, right, but one can dream!)

Can you believe the necklace below was crafted using sheer stockings and balls?

Here are the links to the tutorials for DIY Colored Pencil Jewelry on Design Mom, and a DIY Ball Necklace featured on Babble.
