Painting a Razor Blade Bracelet

Video Transcript

"JASON HARRIS: Hi, I'm Jason with ExpertVillage.com. Today, we're making bracelets out of wires, just basically recycled stuff we've found lying around. So far we've taken some wires from a phone line, and we have a couple to choose from here. And now, before we do anything else, we're gonna--I'm going to put some fake blood on the razorblade. Now, this one is already done, and it takes a while to dry. But all I've done here is take in some glue and mix it with some paint and put on the razorblade. That way it's not sharp. It won't cut you, and it looks kinda cool. So all we've done is take in glue and any kind of glue will work, preferably something that's not water soluble. Just put a little bit down on some paper and mix a little bit of red paint with it. It doesn't take a lot of paint. The paint will automatically--just a little bit will make that all of that glue turn red, bright red. So just take it and mix it in the paint. There you can see the--already it's kinda starting to get jelled up a little bit like blood would. So we'll just take the razorblade and put in the paint, or else put the paint on the razorblade, whichever you prefer. And it's going to dry for a few hours. If this--you probably want to do this first. This probably takes a couple hours to dry. So we'll just set it off to dry. Since I already have the one that we're going to use for this. That's already dried. We'll just use it from now on. You just really want to make sure you give it plenty of time to dry. If you don't, then the paint will come off the sharp edge and you'll end up cutting yourself or somebody else later on. So mix your paint and put your razorblade in it and set it off to dry, and then we'll go from there. "
