Materials:
- Pipe cleaners: red, orange, blue, purple, green, yellow, gold
- Scrap of white felt
- 8-10 small, white pom poms
- White craft glue
Instructions:
- LIne up the pipe cleaners (except for the gold one) in the order of the rainbow (red,orange, yellow, green, blue, purple).
- Gather them together and trim off about 2-inches from one of the pipe cleaner ends. Wrap that piece around all of the pipe cleaners to hold them together.
- Depending on the child's wrist size, repeat on the other side so that the gathered ends meet around the wrist. Twist the remaining open ends together and form a hook at each end to hook the two ends together to stay around the wrist.
- Cut the gold pipe cleaner in half. Save one half for another project and coil the remaining half into a circle to create the gold coin.
- Make the cloud by cutting a small oval from white felt; the oval should fit on the front of the bracelet.
- Glue pom poms to the felt oval and let dry.
- Glue the coin to the center of the cloud.
- Glue the cloud to the front of the bracelet and let dry.
