Pop Top Crafts

Materials

measuring tape, scissors, three-eighths-inch wide ribbon and approximately 12 pop tops

Step 1

Measure wrist. For a wrist smaller than 5 inches, cut ribbon 24 inches long. For a wrist larger than 5 inches, cut ribbon 30 inches long. You may want to coat ends with Fray Check or clear nail polish to prevent fraying while you work.

Step 2

Fold ribbon in half and knot one inch away from the fold. You may want to tape the resulting loop to your work surface so that the ribbon is vertical.

Step 3

Hold pop top horizontally, top side up and thread the first, left side end of ribbon down through the left hole.

Step 4

Thread the second, right side end of ribbon up through the right hole.

Step 5

Hold another pop top horizontally and thread the left end of ribbon up through the left hole.

Step 6

Thread the right end of ribbon down through the right hole.

Step 7

Slide pop tops snugly together.

Step 8

Repeat steps 3-7 until your accessory is the desired length. Knot ribbons together at bottom to hold in place.

Step 9

Tie on by slipping one ribbon end through the loop and knot.

Step 10

Trim ends and coat with Fray Check/clear nail polish to prevent fraying if desired.
