When The Duchess of Cambridge became a mom, women across the world wondered how she’d combine her glamorous life with motherhood. Kate Middleton has a way of making everything look easy and her hot new mommy necklace from Merci Maman, a UK-based e-boutique is just another example of her simple yet chic style.

The hand-engraved “Duchess” necklace features three charms suspended from a gold plated long chain: a mini heart engraved with W representing Prince William, a disc with her baby son’s full name George Alexander Louis, and a sweet little boy charm. It starts at about $150 making it a very affordable option in the world of celebrity mom necklaces.

Globetrotting Mommy – Spotlight on New Orleans: Marti Gras Inspired Candy Necklaces

Grab some string or ribbon, scissors and edible treats with holes in the center to string and you’re good to go. Twizzlers, Life Savers, gummy circles, Cheerios and Fruit Loops are ideal for this project. Kids can design a pattern, create monotone creations or just pick and choose as they go. This is a great project for kids of all ages but younger kids might need some help with stringing.
