I made this snazzy bracelet out of an empty water bottle. I cut out long thin strips of plastic, colored them with sharpie, and rolled them around a pencil to get a perfect bead shape. I then used tweezers to hold it shut and held them in front of a blow dryer for around 20 seconds to get them to keep their shape. I then threaded them on a thin orange string. Easy peasy.
