Project 4: Upcycled bracelet - stage one, 13th October

This is my upcycled paper bracelet in the making. Each bead is made of a triangle cut from a magazine and rolled around the cocktail stick. I didn't plan to post pictures of projects in production but I have with this one for 2 reasons.

1) To promote the use of bread rolls in bracelet making. It was genius! Not only did it keep the beads off the table but each bead had to be coated 3 times in clear nail varnish and so each time I could move the cocktail stick a little and keep a track of how many times it had been painted by how many holes were in the bread roll. Boooom!

2) I also decided to post this one because I'm not convinced I'll be able to get the beads off the cocktail sticks tomorrow when they're dry! If the bracelet doesn't work out - I'll change the title of this make to something along the lines of  'A hedgehog made from a bread roll and cocktail sticks'...

Wish me luck for tomorrow. x
