Make Bracelet
Tools needed for this bracelet (above)
- String or elastic cord
- Buttons
- Scissors
- Your imagination
Directions: We used thin cord for this project
- Measure the desired length for the bracelet-
- Sew the string through the button holes
- Tie a knot
- Done!
- To make it a hanging decoration: Glue the string to the top
Notes:
- determine desired length for the bracelet-make it at least 4 inches longer so that it will be easy to tie
- If you use Elastic Cord in place of string - it's easier to put on and take off. Maybe you have one from a gift left over?
- As a recycle project we suggest you use old buttons
Options:
Mix it with beads!
- Have beads from old jewelry? Mix them in for a different look.
- Make your own clay beads using Planetpals clay crafts recipes and add them
