The end result is a bunch of these colorful braided bracelets that you can customize to match any outfit and won’t cost you anything to make.

To clasp the ends together, this t-shirt bracelet creatively uses magnets that the user can glue on using superglue. Not only is this bracelet super easy to take on and off, if it ever gets dirty you can throw it in the laundry machine for a quick wash.
