  • Add 2 more points—one beside the 2nd and the other beside the 3rd points. Now you have a total of 6 marked points.
  • Punch holes on the marked points. Use the tip of a pencil to punch a hole through each marked point.
  • Cut a length of string at least 4 inches longer than your craft foam band. Make a knot on one end.

  • Lightly singe the opposite end of the string. The burnt end will be firmer, which will make it much easier to string buttons and weave the string in and out of the foam band. Of course this step should be done by an adult or with adult supervision.
  • Insert the string through the first hole on the band. Pull all the way through until the knot touches the band.
  • String the first button, weaving in through one buttonhole and out through another.

  • Continue stringing more buttons until you reach the first pair of middle holes along the band. Stitch through these pair of holes on the craft foam, inserting the string over the first hole then out from under the second hole.
  • String more buttons until you reach the next pair of middle holes. Similarly stitch through these pair of holes on the craft foam.
  • String more buttons until you reach the last hole on the band. Insert the string over this hole and pull it all the way through until the string is taut enough for all the buttons to lay flat on the band.
  • Make a looped knot at the back of the band. The loop should just be large enough for the first button on the band.
  • Cut the excess length of string.

  • To wear the bracelet, put it around your wrist and close by hooking the loop around the first button on the opposite end. Enjoy!
