Teacher Notes

Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?

Step 1: This Is What You Need

This is the complete list of material s you need for this beautiful craft.
√ Big popsicles sticks
√ Variety of beads (small, medium)
√ Cutter/Scissor
√ Ruler
√ Marker/pencil
√ Elastic string

Step 2: Cutting Across the Sticks

* Measure 2.5" from the top of the craft stick and mark it
* Cut it with a scissor
* Measure 2.5" from the bottom of the stick and mark it
* Cut the same

So now you have 2 sticks with the semi circle at one end and 1 as a rectangular piece.

Follow the steps for at least 4 popsicle sticks.

Step 3: Bisecting the Sticks

* Measure the width of the 2.5" sticks and bisect it length wise with a scissor/cutter
* Color the other side(white) of the sticks

Follow the steps for the sticks you had in the last step (Step 2). So now you should have 16 small strips.

Step 4: Chiselling on the Sticks

This is a very crucial step so be cautious.
* At just a bit above the bottom of the stick , punch a hole using a chisel and a hammer. Just hammer twice and the hole will be made. If not done, cautiously hammer it once more so that the stick doesn't get cracked.
* Using the same process punch another hole in the middle of the stick.

For all the mini sticks you need to perform the step to make these holes.

Step 5: Threading the Beads

This step is just to string the beads and the sticks one after another.
¶ For the holes at the bottom:-
* String the small white felt beads (as you see in the pic)and the sticks in an alternate manner such that you only have 3 beads in between the 4 sticks.
* Trim the ends of the elastic string

¶ For the holes at the middle:-
* String the medium pink crystal beads (as you see in the pic)and the sticks in an alternate manner such that you only have 3 beads for 4 sticks.
* After you have beaded the pink beads, insert another bead of different colour and size (Green hexagon shaped bead/rose beads). Don't trim the elastic string.
* Then follow the same steps for all the sets you have. And ultimately join and trim the ends.
And you craft stick bracelet is ready.
