Description

Making a paperclip chain or bracelet has been around for probably as long as paperclips. Take the paperclip bracelet to a new level by wrapping paper around each clip to form paper beads.

Instructions

  1. Small paper clip bracelet 2 thumb

    Link your paperclips together to form a bracelet and add a clasp.

  2. Small paper clip bracelet 10 thumb

    Cut you paper into strips that are narrower than the paperclip. I chose to cut strips that are angled and get narrower at the other end. Starting with the wide end wrap the paper around each clip. You can use glue stick, craft glue or Mod Podge like I did.

  3. Small paper clip bracelet 15 thumb

    Finish with a coat of Glossy Mod Podge.
