here are instructions to make a Rubber Band Bracelet the c-clips mentioned come in a pack of special rubber bands Heres a basic description of how to do it. (NOTE: Theres a link to a great video below, so if the written instructions are confusing, check out the video!) Slide a segment of a rubber band into a c-clip. Ideally, the rubber band should be doubled over (make a figure-8 and fold it over on itself to create a small circle) and slipped inside the c-clip. Lets call this rubber band #1. Now another rubber band (lets call it #2) is slipped halfway through rubber band #1. Try not to twist #2. You then grab the two sides of #2 and hold them together. #2 is looped through #1 but will easily slip out if you let go. Now, carefully gripping #2, you slide the next rubber band, #3, through the hole created by stretching #2. As you hold #3 and let go of #2, youll see that #2 is firmly attached to the bracelet and you need to hold #3 to prevent it from slipping out from #2. Hold #3, stretching it out to create an opening, which you then slide #4 halfway through. Grab the two sides of #4, letting go of #3, and slide #5 halfway through #4. Continue this pattern. This process creates a simple chain. When the bracelet is long enough to fit comfortably around your wrist -- not too tightly -- then take the last rubber band in the line and slip one side of it through the other (one loop through the other) and pull it tightly to firmly attach it to the previous rubber band. Now slip the last rubber bands loop into the same c-clip that is holding the first rubber band. Tah-dah! youtube/watch?v=uysA5qpdV5A
