#AmCrafter: Plastic Snake Bracelet

I had a vision and it involved plastic snakes. I have weird visions sometimes. I went to the toy store and bought a bag of plastic snakes. This is how the vision's worked out.

How to Make a Snake Bracelet

Supplies:

hard plastic toy snakes
very small eye screws
pliers
cutting board
whatever tools are laying around the house (if it works, I'll use it)
paper clip
candle and matches
necklace hook

Idk what this is for.

1. Cut the snake into 2 parts at one of the bends. 

I used a random tool I had on hand. I don't actually know what it's used for. The key is to find something strong, sharp and that you won't cut yourself with (at least for me). Use your cutting board and hard downward pressure.

2. Use a heated paperclip to make a guide hole.

Bend the paperclip to extend a piece. Heat it up with the candle. Insert it in the snake. This will give you a guide hole for the eye screw and save you untold time trying to start a hole in the plastic. I figured this out after the fifth eye screw. The methods I used before that are not worth noting because they were very bad.

3. Twist in the eye screw.

4. Connect the second eye screw to the first eye screw.

Bend the eye screw to open it and connect it to a second eye screw and close it. Then insert the second eye screw into the other section of snake.

5. Repeat step 1.

Go one cut at a time.

There was luck and guessing involved with this for me. But to get the wrist length for the bracelet, you could measure your wrist and measure the length of the snake with the hook. It's better to have it a little loose than a little tight. The hook gets hooked into the eye screw.

6. Add the necklace hook.

Use the paperclip to create a guide hole in the snake's mouth. Insert the eye screw. Add the necklace hook.
