Cut vinyl tubing into a 10-inch-long piece. For a connector, cut a 1-inch-long piece from smaller tubing that fits snugly into the longer piece. Slide the small piece 1/2 inch into one end of the longer piece. Use a funnel to fill the long piece with candy, beads, or glitter. Bend the long piece into a circle. Slide the open end over the exposed end of the connector to complete the bracelet.
So cute! I was at home depot and actually remembered to buy the tubing! Now to find some candy that will fit. Maybe tictacs would be fun in different colors.
ReplyDeleteI shared this on my Operation Christmas Child blog as I think this would be SO cute to include in a shoebox for a child in need. Thank you for this adorable idea and clear instructions! http://klamathocc.blogspot.com
