Bracelet with own hands and other articles made of ice cream sticks
If you and your kids are big fansice cream, like my son and I, then you probably have already collected or have the opportunity to collect enough popsicle sticks to find a worthy creative use for them in everyday life or in handicrafts. I want to share with you very simple and interesting ideas - what can be made from such wooden ice cream sticks. The first thing I liked the most - these are DIY bracelets, they are very easy to make.We need to soak the sticks in water (2-3 days).
So that they soften faster, you can brew them.
Then slowly (so as not to break), bend and thrust into a glass, so that they take a rounded shape. It is advisable to pick up such glasses that correspond to the size of your wrist.
Approximately every other day (it is necessary to wait for complete drying), we pull out the resulting bracelets.
At will, you can tie a string to the bracelets:
Now the creative part remains: let's decorate our cute bracelets to our taste.
The next idea that I really liked is honeycombs, which we will use to decorate the wall in the house.
We need to paint our sticks (not entirely, but leave a few millimeters on the side unpainted so that they look voluminous from afar).
When the paint dries, lay out the layout of the future craft on the floor and glue the sticks to each other so that it looks like a honeycomb. It remains to hang on the wall.
