Magazine Bead Bracelets

1 May

Mother’s Day is just around the corner. If you are looking for a present that your kids could make this Mother’s Day, then keep reading.

We made these “Magazine Bead Bracelets” last year, and honestly I still have mine on my dresser. I like all the colors.

My Kids Make “Magazine Bead Bracelets”, and yours can too! Get out your magazines and start making your beads!

Making beads from old magazines is a great way to reuse the paper.

Cut strips of paper, glue and roll it into small “beads”.

Then, string the beads onto pipe cleaners, thread, yarn, etc…

    Oooh how pretty! These take me back a long long way and put a huge smile on your face, especially the photo with your little one wearing them!

    Cute cute cute!!

    I run Fun Family Crafts, a site similar in nature to Craftgawker and Spotlight, but different in that it’s a library of craft tutorials geared only at kids. I would love it if you’d stop by and submit this to be featured! (I link to you, I don’t post your tutorial on the site) Feel free to submit as many kid friendly craft tutorials as you like! http://funfamilycrafts.com/

    [...] My Kids Make submitted this post to Craft Gossip, but I didn’t have a chance to post it before Mother’s Day due to becoming a mother for a 3rd time! I love these bracelets, and I have actually made an ‘adult’ version before. My girls would love these, and if I were to receive this as a gift…I would be honored.  My Kids Make also has a video tutorial on there as well! You may also like… [...]
