Introduction: Cool Paper Bracelets

About: hey! I'm a student curious about building robots and origami - I love Arduino and build projects around that.

Cool paper bracelets made from kids paintings.

Step 1: Materials Required

  • Colour painted sheets
  • Scissor
  • Scale

Step 2: Getting Started

To make a folded paper bracelet you need to begin by cutting lots of strips of paper. The strips need to be 12cms x 3cms (bigger or smaller as long as the size ratio is 1:4). For each bracelet, you’ll need between 16 and 22 strips, depending on how big a bracelet you want to make. 18 strips are used in the bracelet in the picture.
