  Step 1

  For this project I'm using the rubber button insert that you get inside calculators.

• 

  Step 2

  Use scissors to cut the buttons in to strips. Individually cut off any larger buttons.

• 

  Step 3

  Use a pin to pierce a hole at the end of a rubber strip.

• 

  Step 4

  Slip a jump ring through the hole.

• 

  Step 5

  Attach a clasp to the the end jump ring and close it.

• 

  Step 6

  Attach all the button strips together in one long chain.

• 

  Step 7

  Attach a single jump ring at the other end of the chain.

• 

  Step 8

  Your bracelet is now ready to wear.

I'm executive director at a youth center where I also teach art and I'm definitely going to make these with the kids! Reminds me of the old typewriter key bracelets we were all making a couple of years back. Thanks for sharing this great idea!

I had an old calculator that I felt bad throwing away, so I took out the buttons and decided to use them as beads. I was going to make earrings too!
