scrap paper kids' bracelets [a tutorial]



we just finished our 3-day garage sale and are *so* happy to take back a lot of our storage area!  


while we were keeping an eye on our 'shop', we made some scrap paper bracelets out of the supplies on the check-out table.  


this is *so* simple and the kids had a blast 'designing' their bracelets.  think of it as a scrap paper sandwich where the tape is the bread.  but here are some pics to illustrate:







Design option #1



some scraps that didn't stick.  fit them on the tape or leave the spaces empty!
Design option #2:


here's the sandwich!






Use a small piece of packaging tape to secure it to a wrist (or ankle)!  



easy and fast activity to get the kids' creativity flowing! enjoy!
