Hyro Bracelets

This is soooo cute!! Hydro means water and that's just what makes the beads and glitter in these bracelets float and sparkle. If you are looking for a great summer birthday favor, this is it . The supplies listed below are enough to make three bracelets.

Materials :

2 feet of clear plastic tubing with a 1/4 inch inner diameter
3 inches of clear plastic tubing with a 3/8 inch inner diameter (sold in most hardware stores)
Ruler and scissors
Tiny beads or glitter and water

Directions :

1. To make each bracelet, cut 8 inches long piece for the 1/4 inch tubing and cut 1 inch length from the 3/8 inch tubing(for a fastener) Slide both ends of the 8 inch tube into the fastener, and have your child try on the bracelet for fit, If it's too big, take it apart and trim to size, remembering that it will need to slip over the hand.

2.Remove one end of the bracelet from the fastener. Use a finger to stopper one end while your child drops in tiny beads or pieces of glitter-or anything shes likes that fits in the tube and can be submerged in water.

3. When she's done, slowly fill the tube with water,leaving several inches of air so it has room to move. Carefully slide the free end into the fastener as far as it will go. This should create a snug fit that won't come undone without a good tug.

Cute, Huh? Let me know how this turns out for you .
