I know there are several tutorials for nature bracelets out there. Why not one more, right? Here's my version of making a nature bracelet.
SUPPLIES
- Scissors
- Clear packing tape
- Duct tape
- Ribbon
- Gathered natural treasures
STEP 1: Gather up some natural treasures: flowers, petals, pine needles, pieces of pinecone, etc.
STEP 2: Cut off an appropriate length of duct tape. Make sure it will fit around the wrist.
STEP 3: Arrange your treasures on the sticky side of the tape.
STEP 4: Cut a corresponding piece of clear packing tape. Make sure it's two inches longer than the duct tape.
STEP 5: Wrap the extra ends of the packing tape around the back of the duct tape. This will help reinforce the hole for the ribbon.
STEP 6: Punch a hole on each end of the bracelet.
STEP 7: String the ribbon through the two holes and tie into a bow.
Now, you have a lovely nature bracelet.
Very cute!

What a fun craft idea for camp. You could use something more masculine (like camo) to tie it up for boys! Thanks!!
