Did you think these are made from Popsicle sticks?  If you did, then you are right.  But this DIY by Jessica from Bespangled Jewelry is not just a recycled jewelry tutorial. You could consider using the idea with better wood assuming you are able to do some basic woodwork!  Even better, leave it unpainted but varnished.


But decorating the wood strips with paints or decoupage is another alternative and the fun part. The tutorial also shows how to bend the Popsicle stick.

The tutorial is great for the younger set as a craft project when boredom sets in during school vacations. So remember to save it for the future.
