The materials you will need are:

  • Wire
  • A charm (optional)

The tools you will need are:

  • Pliers
  • A chopstick or pencil
  • A cup (optional)

Cutting the Wire

Cut a piece of wire that is a little bigger than the circumference of the person's wrist that will be wearing it. If this is a gift, you'll just need to eyeball it.

Curling the Wire

At one end of the piece of wire, make an elbow bend. Then take the wire on the end and curl it tightly around the chopstick.

Pull Wire Through

Feed the other end of the wire through the loop.

If you have a charm, then slip it on after completing the above.

Spend time perfecting the shape of the bracelet by toying with the loops with pliers and by wrapping the bracelet around a cup
