Outlier DIY | Metallic Crochet Bracelet I have always found the different shapes and textures you can create with crochet really fun. I just learned the very basics (thanks YouTube!) and there’s a lot you can make with that as long as you pick the correct yarn. This metallic bracelet is the first thing I have tried. I have included very detailed steps here, so you can make one even if you have never tried crochet before. I didn’t have a Size 35+ knitting needle, so just tied 4 chopsticks together with a hair tie (at the top part). Step 1: Make a foundation chain of 24 – This should be long enough to make a complete circle around your wrist. Step 2: Add a row of single crochet stitch to the chain. Step 3: After the row of single crochet, start your broomstick lace stitch. Step 4: After you complete one round of broomstick lace stitch, add another round of single crochet
5 Bracelets in 10 Minutes Today I would like to show you 5 different techniques to make some nice and easy bracelets. I wanted new bracelets and a lot of them so I made these very quickly. The best thing about these bracelets is that if you're crafty you'll make them for free because they can be made with what you have in your stash:left-over pieces from other DIY projects, little pieces of ropes, some yarn and so on. These bracelets are quick to make and you can have fun making them in every color! Let's start! Yarn bracelet : I made a tiny loop with the rope, blocked with thread and needle and then I just wrapped the colored yarn around. Crystal bracelet : I made a loop with the rope and blocked it with thread and needle then I put the crystal chain over the rope and I wrapped the yarn around both. Ball chain bracelet: I made a loop with the rope and blocked it with thread and needle then I put the ball chain over the rope and I wrapped the yarn around both.

If you went to summer camp as a kid, you’ll totally remember making lanyard keychains with that brightly colored plastic lace {I had tons of them!} .So I thought, why not do it with leather laces?

Friendship Bracelets 1 Macraméd friendship bracelets were all the rage when I was growing up in the eighties. All the girls at my school would obsessively make them for one another in a dizzying variety of colors, widths, and patterns. It's amazing, thinking back, that such young girls could make such beautifully intricate accessories. I, of course, tried my hand at making them as well. I would ride my bike down to the five-and-dime store and pick out the most sophisticated color combinations of embroidery floss I could find, but when it came to the actual macramé I never got beyond plain stripes. Fast forward 20 years: Purl Soho started carrying DMC Cotton Embroidery Floss in every conceivable color (including fluorescents!

DIY Charm Bracelet I’ve been itching to do a charm bracelet tutorial on HonestlyWTF for awhile now. And it wasn’t until I recently purchased a gorgeous vintage pearl charm bracelet that I was motivated to locate all the necessary supplies to recreate something just as pretty. The main focus of this week’s tutorial is to teach you how to wire wrap, which allows you to add any type of charm to personalize your own bracelet! You’ll need: Start by threading a headpin through a large pearl. Use the round nose pliers to bend the headpin to the left, about 2 millimeters above the spacer bead. Find the center link of the bracelet and attach the charm to that link. Now use the flat nose pliers to hold the loop tight for traction. Use the wire cutters to trim away any excess wire. Continue adding more charms, alternating between large and small pearls. Your charm bracelet is finished. Layer with your favorite bracelets and enjoy!
