After looking at so many bracelet tutorials and collecting ideas, I have decided to pick my favourite feature of each tutorial I saw and create my very own! I actually made these for school. I hope you like it as much as I do:)
1
Lay out your materials for easy access. Cut the faux leather to a suitable length for your wrist, giving a little allowance for the loops to be made.
2
Dab one end of the strand into the glue.
3
Sliding the clasp onto the strand, create a loop and glue the strand end to the strand itself as shown. Leave it to dry.
4
Thread the bead onto a thread. I am using crochet thread here as I feel it is stronger and thicker so the beads will not slip off. Tie a knot a both ends leaving some allowance (more than shown in the picture) to prevent the beads from slipping off
5
Dab some glue onto the embroidery thread and wind it onto the faux leather with the strand of beads. wind it around a few more times to make it ultra secure.
6
Push up a bead then wind the thread around it. Repeat till the bracelets is slightly shorter than desire length.
7
Dab the end of the faux leather strand into the glue and then create a loop just like the beginning and wind the thread around it. Tie a knot with the help of a needle if needed, cut the thread and dab some glue to the ends to seal it.
8
Ta-ta! Done! Admire your handiwork. If you want to add some charms, do so while winding the bracelet or use jump rings now.
