Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add popsicle sticks. Some may break, so use a few extra. Soak for 15 minutes. While sticks are boiling locate a small cup that is about the size of a wrist. Remove sticks one at a time and slowly bend them and work them into the inside of the glass. You can also wrap them around the cup and secure with an elastic band. Set these aside to dry for 24 hours. Now that the popsicle stick bracelets are completely dry, remove them from the glass. Gather any supplies you want to use to decorate. I used Mod Podge, paint, glitter dots, rub-on-sayings, scrapbooking paper and hot glue. Use a jumbo craft stick and a pencil to trace the shape onto some scrapbook paper and then cut it out. Slather Mod Podge onto your bracelet. Lay the design onto the bracelet and press it down flat, making sure to work out any air bubbles. Or you can paint your bracelet with craft paint. Set aside to dry. Using 150 fine grit sand paper, sand the edges of the bracelet and paper to get rid of any overhang and to create smooth edges. Add embellishments as desired.
