I have been missing my accessory designing time, so I got out my supplies the other day and crafted away. I will be sharing a few accessory DIY posts in the next few weeks. If you are like me, its hard to find time to do even simple DIY projects. These wrap bracelets take minutes to do, and ANYONE can make them. They would make very fun birthday gifts for friends. (They reminded me of an abacus, hence the name.)
Supplies:
Leather cord in two tones
Silver Beads
(You can find these supplies at Hobby Lobby or MJ Trim)
Total Cost: 5$ Can make up to 8 Bracelets!
Steps:
1.Measure out your cord so it wraps 3-4 times around your wrist with enough to tie a double knot in the back. (This cord is very easy to knot and un-knot on your own.)
2. String along your beads of choice (make sure they fit the cord before you buy!), a couple beads in the center rows for an abacus effect. OR sets of three are a fun look too.
3. Wrap around the wrist and tied ends!
Hope you enjoy!

















Ooooo LOVE THEM!! <3

ReplyDeleteThese look great! You could also make them with recycled fabric if the bead hole is big enough.
ReplyDeleteOne question to all: where can I find good beads online, such as these ones above? The crafting stores near me are not stocking as many beads because the market for them isn't great in our area.
