  1. Step 1

    I am not going to give directions on how to prepare plastic bags for crocheting.
    You can google "how to crochet plastic bags" for those directions)

  2. Step 2

    Earrings and Bracelet

    Chain desired length to go around wrist; enough to be able to slip around wrist without using a clasp. Do not join. Fasten off.


  3. Step 3

    With wax paper, wrap around chain and iron to fuse. Just go over about one or two times on both sides.

    Do not let iron touch chain.

    Wait about a minute to cool. If you move right away, it wil break apart.

  4. Step 4

    Fuse ends together. (use wax paper, do not let iron touch plastic).


  5. Step 5

    Repeat directions for for earrings. Make chain to desired size.

  6. Step 6

    Paint with desired color. Preferably paint or spray paint made especially for plastic. You
    can spray with a clear glossy spray paint for finishing.

  7. Step 7

    Add jump ring to circle. Add to fish hook earrings.
