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:)

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.
Dab one end of the strand into the glue.
Sliding the clasp onto the strand, create a loop and glue the strand end to the strand itself as shown. Leave it to dry.
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
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.
Push up a bead then wind the thread around it. Repeat till the bracelets is slightly shorter than desired length.
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.
Ta-ta! Done! Admire your handiwork. If you want to add some charms, do so while winding the bracelet or use jump rings now.
