These chunky, cheerful bangles are so simple, you can wear them the day you make them. Use a basic decoupage process to add bright tissue-paper stripes to inexpensive wooden bracelets.

Whitewash bangle: Dampen paper towel or rag, and dip it into paint. Smooth paint onto the surface of the bangle, inside and out. Let dry.

Balance the bangle on a small bowl. For each stripe, brush one side of tissue with the adhesive, and smooth the strip onto the bangle. Leave the excess tissue at inner edge. Let dry.

Trim excess tissue using craft knife. Brush adhesive over outside of bracelet to seal. Let dry.
