Perfect for sports day! Handmade armbands, bracelets, and wrist accessories

Let’s make it with construction paper! A braided bracelet

How to make a three-strand braid and a crown braid using colored construction paper — drawing paper braid

Accessories made with construction paper have the advantages of being easy to gather materials for and being lightweight when worn.

Cut the construction paper into long, thin strips and braid them together as you would with a three-strand braid.

Once they reach a certain length, you can use them as accessories like bracelets.

By combining construction paper in various colors, you can create colorful accessories.

You can also experiment with different braiding techniques—such as a crown braid—to come up with various accessory shapes and arrangements.

Pipe-cleaner and bead bracelet

Bead and pipe cleaner craft ☺️ #shorts

Why not make a fluffy, shiny handmade bracelet using pipe cleaners and beads? It doesn’t take much time or money, so it’s a perfect idea when you don’t want to spend too long preparing for a sports day! To make it, twist three pipe cleaners together and braid them while threading beads onto the middle pipe cleaner.

Once it reaches your desired length, twist the ends and fasten both ends to finish.

It’s best to hide any sharp pipe cleaner tips or cover them with wood glue or similar adhesive.

Choose colors to match the main costume, or incorporate your class color!

Let’s make it with origami! Heart bracelet

Easy and cute! How to fold an origami heart bracelet ❤️ Perfect as a Valentine’s gift 💝

This is a bracelet made from origami with a heart motif.

All you need is a single sheet of origami paper, and the key point is that you can easily make the bracelet just by folding.

It’s cute worn on its own, but once you learn the folding method you can make many of them, so they seem useful for decorations or grouping teams as well.

The way the paper layers overlap makes the hearts look three-dimensional when formed into a loop, which is interesting.

It’s a simple yet memorable bracelet.

Masking tape scrunchie

Can you make it with masking tape and rubber bands?! Easy scrunchie DIY♡

When you think of a scrunchie, it’s usually as a hair accessory, but it also looks lovely worn like a bracelet.

While scrunchies are typically associated with fabric, you can easily make one yourself using washi tape.

All you need are washi tape and a rubber band—both easy to find at 100-yen shops.

Having a box on hand also makes the process easier.

Wrap the washi tape around the box once with the adhesive side facing outward, place the rubber band, then layer more washi tape over it to sandwich the band.

Remove the wrapped piece from the box, shape it, and you’re done.

Depending on the material of the washi tape used, it’s generally better suited as a bracelet rather than a hair tie.

Rin-Rin Bell

Angel Land Fukui: Let’s all play! “Let’s make Rinrin Bells”

This bracelet features vivid chenille stems and the light, cheerful sound of bells.

All you need are pipe cleaners and small bells, which are easy to find at 100-yen shops.

The method is simple: thread a few bells onto one pipe cleaner, then twist it together with other pipe cleaners to finish.

The ease of assembling with a quick twist is a perk unique to wire.

Since there are so few materials, it’s fun to pay special attention to color combinations.

Some pipe cleaner ends can be sharp, so it’s important to finish safely by covering them with tape or similar measures.
