1) You'll need a large plastic cup. This you can get from any fast food place you had a drink from.
I got my cup from a fast food place.
2) Scissors. Any scissors will do as long as they are able to cut threw plastic.
3) Tape. Any kind of tape will do. I so happen to have masking tape and that works just fine too.
Now what you do is simple. You snip off the tip of the plastic cup just like I did on the photo on top.
Then you tape it to however big (or small if you don't want a loose bangle) you loose you like your bangle to be. Just be aware that you need to be able to slide it off and on your wrist.
Now that you have it the size you want it you just tape it up. After you tape it is the best part (lets face it WE do NOT want to just wear a plastic lid on our wrists... RIGHT?!)
Now with this bangle guide will be great for wires, polymer clay colors, air dry clay or just anything you know that would be perfect for your new handmade bangle!
Remember this plastic lid is JUST a guide for you to use while you make your real bangle. Unless you like to wearing cut up plastic lids. =)
Stay tuned for photos on how mine turned out using the guide!
If you are more visual and would like to see a video on how I did this than just leave me a comment and I will post one up! Thank you!
P.S. THIS IS JUST A GUIDE! Remember to take the polymer clay off the guide before baking. The lid is plastic and will melt.
