attach the strap to your hand and see where the strap fits you best (if it doesnt fit good for you then, you can make some few adjustments to make it longer or a little wider)

Use the hot glue to glue on the cardboard and after you added hot glue, make sure to add the other cardboard watch strap on top of that (remember: dont burn yourself with the hot glue)

use the hot glue to glue the sand paper on the cardboard strap on top of the green paper to make a good design on the watch strap. (you also need the metal lock that belts have and you can see that I have one from a belt but you can use any type, as long it can be used as a lock like mine.
