DIY $220 BRACELET FOR $5
All you need is about 3 yards of ribbon and 2 dozen gold beads. I, of course, went with purple but any color would look great.

You Will Need
-
Step 1Cut the ribbon into 3 equal lengths. EDIT: Standard bracelet size is 7 inches so you’ll want it about 29 inches long in order to wrap 4 times.
-
Step 2
Start by braiding about 6 inches of ribbon and then secure the end with a rubber band. Anchor the end with something heavy to hold in it place.
-
Step 3Start braiding in the beads by feeding the ball onto the middle strand and then tightly braiding the other two strands around it. Continue feeding beads onto the middle strand until you run out (I had about 25) or until there’s about 6 inches of ribbon left.
-
Step 4Finish with another 6 inches or so of braiding. Then clamp the ends with ribbon fasteners or just tie it in a knot.
-
Step 5It looks great as a bracelet or a necklace!
How do you start the bracelet? Do you just tue a knot to start it?
And
What if you only want it to wrap around your wrist once? How much ribbon would I need?
