Create a Patriotic Bracelet with Buttons and Ribbon. This could easily be done with the kids in a variety of colors with lots of different buttons.
I’ve knit my ribbon by wrapping it around my fingers. As a child I would sit for hours and make yarn chains and pull them out. I guess I was bored during the summer! If you aren’t familiar with this technique, you could easily braid some ribbons.
It’s fun to find inexpensive craft ideas for the kids during the summer.
Supplies
- Buttons – Patriotic Value Pack
- Ribbon – Michael’s
- Embroidery Thread – Coats & Clark
- Rhinestones – Want2Scrap Bulk Bling
How to Create a Patriotic Bracelet with Buttons and Ribbon
- Knit or braid ribbon, leaving a length at each end to tie on wrist.
- Tie a bow with buttons around the bracelet with several strands of embroidery thread.
- Hot glue a rhinestone on each bow to hold knots in place.
