Main supplies:

  • Pacon® craft foam – any color
  • DMC® craft thread – four colors
  • Pacon® – pony beads
  • Fiskars® ¼” circle hand punch
  • Fiskars® scissors
  • Glue


Instructions:
1. Using the pattern, cut the bracelet shape from the craft foam. Punch holes in the ends of the bracelet.
2. Wrap the craft thread in various width sections across the bracelet beginning and ending ¾” in from each end. Glue the ends to the back (ends can be cut after each section is wrapped or leave the ends long and wrap the thread over the previous threads).
3. To finish each end of the bracelet, cut one 16” piece from each of the craft thread colors, except the thread that is the same color as the pony bead. Insert the thread ends through the hole in the bracelet and pony bead. Braid the threads together, separating the colors for sections. Make a knot at the end of the braid and trim the ends even
