Create rubber band bracelets and a whole lot more with the Rubber Band Studio!
Take your crafting on the go with the hand-held loom. Over 1000 rubber bands
allows you to make over 25 accessories and bracelets for every outfit you own!
Lift the other side of
the band over and off
the peg so it hangs in
the center.
6
Make sure the band is
centered in the loom
as shown.
7
Repeat step 4 and 5
for the band stretched
across the first band.
Repeat steps 3-6 until
all 48 bands are used.
Note - there should
only be 2 bands on a
peg at a time.
8
The rubber bands included are latex free. As with all craft materials, keep them away from small
children and pets. Craft with care and do not overstretch your rubber bands or they will break.
Discard any broken rubber bands.
Prepping the loom
To end the rope bracelet, open a jump ring and gather the ends of the rubber
bands inside as you remove the bands from the pegs.
Hold the loom as shown. Be sure the grooves in
the pegs are facing out. Place the yellow sticker
on a peg. This is your “starting peg”.
Close the jump ring. Your
bracelet is complete!
As you craft, refer to the instructional video for extra
help: youtube.com/justaddimagination. Remember
you can start, stop and rewind the video at any time.
