How to Fix Silly Bandz

Silly Bandz are one of the most popular toys among kids today. The shaped silicone bracelets are collected and traded by kids of all ages. Silly Bandz are intended to be unbreakable, however, accidents can and do happen. When your children's Silly Bandz break, you don't have to throw them away. Using this easy at-home method for repairing Silly Bandz bracelets, you can repair a Silly Bandz in a matter of minutes.

Things You'll Need

Wax paper
Iron

Instructions

- 1
  Plug in your iron, turn it to medium-high heat, and lay down a towel on your counter or ironing board.

  Tear two evenly sized pieces of wax paper off of the roll. The pieces just need to be larger than the Silly Bandz that needs repairing.

  Set the first piece of wax paper down on the towel. Lay the broken Silly Bandz down on the wax paper, making sure to set it down so that the broken ends are lined up and touching.

  Carefully lay the second piece of wax paper on top of the Silly Bandz, making sure not to move or shift the bracelet.

  Set the hot iron down on the top sheet of wax paper, making sure that the Silly Bandz bracelet is under the iron. Leave the iron on top for 30 seconds. Remove the iron, turn it off and unplug it from the wall.

  Wait one minute, then peel the wax paper off of the bracelet. The heat will have joined the broken ends together, and the Silly Bandz will be as good as new.
