So if you have these:
Around 50 safety pins of the same size About 1.5 feet of stretchy string And a whole lot of beads |
Then you can make this:
Optional Step 1: Dye The Safety Pins
SPRAY EM! (Don't forget to wait a bit for one side to dry and then flip all the pins over and spray the other side.) |
Step 2: Bead the Pins
Once the paint is completely dry, adorn each pin with beads by "threading" beads through the sharp point. |
Step 3: String the Beaded Pins (The Slightly Complicated Part)
Step 4: Tie Up
In my excitement over finishing up the bracelet, I forgot to photograph this step, so bare with me.
After you've strung all your pins (and checked if the length makes a good circumference for your wrist),
tie up the two ends of the stretchy string separately to the their respective beginning points.
Double knot the two knots. Chop off the excess string.

If you're successful, you should end up with something like this:
Step 5:...Wear Fashionably.
