4. Wrap one of the strips around your child’s wrist and trim so that there is a one inch overlap. Trim all of the strips to the same length.
5. Cut the Velcro into two, two-inch strips. Stitch the soft side of the Velcro to one end of the felt pieces with the star. Sew the scratchy side to one end of each of the other two.
