DIY Wrap Bracelets


Forgive this incredibly dark pic but it was night time. You know, the time when my kids look like angels in their beds and I can craft!!! ;) I made these bracelets....which I LOVE and one of which I have been dying to make for a while! If you have not discovered Honestly WTF yet you have to check it out! Their tutorial for the brown wrap bracelet you see above is awesome and that's what I followed to make mine. It's been on my list forever and I am so happy I finally made it!  *Just FYI: I had waxed cotton thread instead of waxed linen and it worked fine. Also, for the ball chain I just bought one you would use for your ceiling fan in the hardware dept. at Wal-Mart for less than $2*  The other is a beaded wrap bracelet that takes a little more work but is seriously not that hard at all. I looked at several videos on You Tube for these bracelets and this one is a little long but has a really good close shot of the process.

These are seriously addicting! I have a date with some more beads today! ;) lol

For a tutorial on another super easy diy bracelet check out this one.
