As part of the Michaels Passport to Imagination program, the kids and I thought it would be fun to try one of the take-home projects they have outlined in the passport! This one is inspired by South Africa to make leather bracelets, and they are fun and easy to make!! I love how the passport has a list of materials needed for each project, and of course all of the materials can be found at your local Michaels craft store.
To make your own, you will need a blank leather bracelet (Michaels sells these in packages of 8 in the kids’ craft aisle), and Crayola Classic Markers. Start by outlining your design with a black marker, then fill in the rest with the color of your choosing!
This was such a great boredom buster project for Summer, and both of the kids made several different versions of these bracelets — some to keep for themselves, and others to give away to friends!
Have you participated in the Passport to Imagination program at Michaels this Summer? If so, I would love to hear about it! Leave a comment and share your stories with us! You can find more information on the program here.
