Cardboard Tube Bracelet for a Princess

February 12th, 2013 posted by Amanda Formaro

 

Little girls love to play dress up. Moms love to recycle. This is a win/win project for both! Make a fun jewel encrusted bracelet from recycled materials and your little princess will love it.

You will need:

Cardboard tube

Scissors

Pink felt

White craft glue

Craft jewels

What you do:

Cut cardboard tube into 1.5″ wide rings (for each bracelet). Cut each ring open so that the bracelet can be easily slipped onto child’s wrist.

Cut a strip of felt 1.5″ wide long enough to cover the tube. To gauge the size needed, cover the inside and outside of the tube, trim where needed.

Use white craft glue to attach the felt to the cardboard tube.

Using a generous amount of white craft glue, cover the outside of the bracelet with craft jewels. Let it dry completely.
