Common questions

What if I cannot find gold craft foam?

Cut the cuffs from cardboard and cover them in gold stickers or yellow tape. The shape reads as cuffs before the color does.

How do the cuffs stay on?

Tape each cuff into a loose tube that slides over the hand. Snug enough to stay, loose enough to slide off fast.
