Ring Around Your Wrist

Men and women have been wearing "gems" like these bracelet/wristbands for centuries. Body ornaments and jewelry were as popular in ancient Egypt as they are today!

1. Use Crayola® Scissors to cut a slender strip of construction paper. Fit the band to your wrist, leaving enough room to slide it over your hand.

2. Decorate your wrist ring with Crayola Gel Markers. Repeat shapes to create interesting patterns.

3. Glue the ends together in a continuous circle with a Crayola Glue Stick.

Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.

Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
