How to Make a Cuban Sandwich

Bracelet MakingThis is a fun and easy project, costs less than $1 to make, has tons of possibilities for customization, requires no jewelry making skill or real tools, and is a way to recycle stuff that would be thrown away! What could be better?? Inspired by something I used to do as a kid, this tutorial explains how to make friendship bracelets out of fishing tackle (specifically a barrel swivel) and faux shrinky dinks from #6 plastic (like the Shrinky Dinky Test Lab experiments)

Completed FrontHere is a fun and quick project, perfect for a gift for a little girl! Or adapt this using bolder flowers without the heart and make a fun funky adult brooch. The technique is quite simple, and it’s a great thing to do with felted sweater scraps (though of course you could use store bought felt if you wish). It even uses a safety pin for it’s “pin” so you can probably do this with materials you have around the house, today!
