Last time we made a Magnet poem. Today we are going to make a word covered bangle.
Resources
Bangle
Newspaper/map/magazine/cartoon pages
glue
scissors
sand paper
varnish
small paint brush
- Decide on the paper you want to use and cut out long strips. Ensure that the piece you cut out reach all around the bangle and that they overlap/.

- Decide on the width you are going to go with. (See below for different styles).
- Ensure your bangle is clean, and to ensure the paper stick I would advice to use a small piece of sanding paper to rough it up.
- Use the brush to paint the glue onto one piece of paper and glue on, one at a time, with the edges overlapping.
- Ensure there are no air bubbles, leave to dry for at least 2 hours.
- Paint with varnish to ensure the ink wont run and elongating the life span of your fab new, personalised bangle!
I will upload pictures of my finished bangle later, just waiting for them to dry.
