Step 1
Grab a pair of sheer stockings and cut off the legs. Leave room at both ends (so you can tie your necklace together when it's done).
Step 2
Knot one leg (leave a little room at the end) and drop bouncy balls, one at a time, tying knots between them as you go.
Step 3
Repeat the process with the second stocking leg. Make sure that the one leg has more balls. This will serve as the bottom strand.
Step 4
Attach the legs together by knotting them.

P.S. - Get creative by mixing balls of different colors and sizes with a variety of textured stockings and tights. The possibilities are endless.
