Toothbrush Bracelet

If you enjoyed the record bowl project and looking for the next opportunity to melt a household item, you will love this next project!  Below find the simple directions on how to turn your old tooth brush into a funky piece of jewelery.

Toothbrush Bracelet

  1. Boil 3 cups of water in a small saucepan
  2. Drop the toothbrush that you are no longer using into the water (the clear plastic ones work the best)
  3. Let boil for 10 minutes, or until the toothbrush is soft and pliable
  4. Remove toothbrush from water
  5. Shape toothbrush body- I used a drinking glass for a mold
  6. Pull bristles out (they come out really easy after the boiling)
  7. Let cool


Happy Crafting,
EM

  1. Um that's adorable. What book did you take that picture on? I see the words Roasted Guinea Hens, Wilderness, parson's or pope's, and gizzards... What were you reading about? I hope you're not cooking a pope's gizzards... :)

  2. Haha, no...it's the Joy of Cooking. Had I been thinking I would have opened to a page about cookies.
