DIY - From A Toilet Paper Roll To An Elegant BubbleGoth Cuff
DIY - From a toilet paper roll to an elegant BubbleGoth cuff
what you need:
-toilet paper roll
-spray glue or any glue u have
-E6000 or any glue u have
-ribbons
-any fabric
-whatever embellishments. Make it yours! :)
I realized today that toilet paper rolls have a really nice shape and since I often use cardboard as a base for the jewelry I make, I figured it would make a nice cuff or maybe a hair cone (my new obsession!)
There's really not much more to it then measuring the roll to be the length of your perfect cuff, cutting a slit into it, covering it with fabric and embellishing it. I figured the easiest way to tie the cuff (let me know if you have a better solution) is to make the ribbons a part of the embellishment.
My cuff is very BubbleGoth - it has the dark side and the cotton candy side and some Alice in Wonderland inspired bunny stuff (actually a $3 ring from forever21 that broke).
Check it out, make some of your own and show them off during the MoonChild Monday by submitting your arts and crafts projects to our email: moonchildacademy@gmail.com

Although, since I've made a lot of stuff like this in the past, I've found that you almost need a 2nd person to tie them on for you because it's on your wrist, so maybe doing straps with buckles or velcro might make them easier to put on and off.

I noticed you use a lot of spray glues/adhesives of different sorts. I was wondering if you think it's a bad idea to use hot glue or do the regular glues work just fine?
Thanks!
