Yes, this is real.

I prefer to use old ones as crevice scrubbers, but YMMV.

Euw!

I think I'd want to twist them first to form a tight spiral, then bend them into a C shape for the actual bracelet.

Oh my God. I thought I was bad, but thisis just nuts.

That's cool! I might have to try it over the winter break.

I'm all for creativity, but this qualifies as a "Martha Stewart has gone over the wall" scenario.

Actually, the twisting occurred to me, too. It's that creative bug. Once the possibility of something has been admitted to the conversation...

Shades of Martha Stewart
Oh my God. I thought I was bad, but this is just nuts.

A lot of stifled creativity bursting out here...

The colgate ones offer scope for the imagination...
