Step 1
To make the Stretchy Bracelet, first wrap straws with tape. Cut a strip of duct tape 1.5" wide and the length of the straw, and roll around until straw is covered.
Step 2
Cut the covered straws into short pieces. Thread onto an elastic cord with a large-eye, sharp needle.
Step 3
You can also use beads and double-sided tape squares (.5" in size) for your bracelet. Knot the cord ends together.
Step 4
To make the Tape-Wad Bracelet, cut some elastic cord. Gently wad up scraps of tape & wrap around the cord, adding beads between the wads.
Step 5
Tie on pretty charms & pieces of old necklaces & earrings. Knot the cord ends together.
