Soda Tab Bracelet Class



This morning I made this blue soda tab bracelet.  I was very happy to finally have enough of these blue tabs to make a bracelet out of.  I also have a few gold and red ones as well, but not as many.  Last night I made a pink one (silver tabs and pink ribbon).


Today I taught a class at the library on how to make these bracelets.  Here is my set up.  The ribbon was precut to 37", and each young lady got 23 soda tabs, a tapestry needle, and the clasps for the bracelet.


I think that the class went well.  Two of the young ladies were able to make two bracelets instead of just one.  Here is the video on how to make the bracelet.

  5. I am a substitute teacher and I once had a 3rd grader who made these and sold them to her classmates for a $1 each. She was a little entrepreneur.
