Bracelets Bracelets chainettes All though it could be said that I’m the queen of “more is more,” lately, I have been obsessed with dainty little baubles… especially in the form of delicate chain bracelets. I’ve bought a few here or there, but then it dawned on me – why not make a few, repurposing some old chain necklaces that I no longer wear. They’re incredibly easy to make… I made three – one with a safety pin, another with a gold tube bead, and one with a little star charm. I’m wearing the homemade versions on the right side. Materials / Where to Buy: Old necklace or delicate fine chain // charm // safety pin (I used a tiny brass one that came in this set.) // 3mm jump rings // 6mm jump rings // needle-nose pliers // tube bead //wire nippers (not pictured) To make the tube bead bracelet: 1. To make the safety pin bracelet: 1. To make the star bracelet: 1.
Bracelet chainette/fil coton You should all know by now that we are all about stacking bracelets on our wrists. The more, the better. In fact . . . the most, the best! With that being said, we’ll show you how to master a version of the ever so popular wrap bracelet. You’ll need (for a double wrapped bracelet) :* Lengths will vary depending on the size of your wrist (see comments for suggestions). Fold the length of leather cording in half to form a loop. Place the ball chain along the leather cording with the end of the chain meeting the end of the wrap. Continue wrapping while checking it for fit around the wrist. When you have reached the end of the ball chain wrap the linen cording around the leather strands 2-3 more times. Thread the hex nut through the strands and tie a second knot. Trim with scissors and your wrap bracelet is finished!! The materials are listed for a double wrap bracelet. It’s a party!

Bracelet fine tresse/perles It’s been awhile since our last bracelet DIY. I don’t know about you, but our wrists have been begging for another colorful addition for months now. So after playing with some materials that were already on hand, we’ve created a tutorial for a braided bead bracelet, which is a not so distant cousin of the hex nut and wrap bracelet. You’ll need: Cut the waxed linen cord into a 26″ and 19″ piece. Tie a knot about half an inch down from the loops. Start braiding the strands. Push the bead against the base of the braid, and cross the left strand over the middle. Keep a finger at the base of the braid, holding the beads in their place and keeping the braid tight. Finish the bracelet with another inch of braided cord, measuring it against the wrist. Thread on a two hole button – two strands through one hole and one strand through another. Trim the end. Your bracelet is finished! (all images by HonestlyWTF)

Bracelet escalade Climbing rope? Bracelets? Count us in. Inspired by Miansai‘s colorful, stackable and adjustable rope bracelets, we were determined to add another do-it-yourself bracelet to our growing collection. With some colorful rope and an S hook from the hardware store, making this bracelet is as simple as mastering the versatile sliding knot. We must warn you though, this project is extremely easy and addicting! Before you begin, seal the tips of the cord by burning them with a lighter. Coil the cord twice around towards the left loop. Repeat the same steps on the other side. Trim and re-burn the tips if necessary. Try making the bracelets with leather cord too. (top image from here; rest of images from Honestly…WTF)
Bracelet écrous We’re nuts for nuts. Is there a more versatile and inexpensive DIY component than a hex nut from the hardware store? You can imagine our excitement when we first discovered Philip Crangi’s Giles & Brother Hex Collection. Honestly, nuts braided into jewelry is WTF genius! You’ll need:3 strands of cotton butcher’s twine cut into one yard pieces18 small brass hex nutsa bit of dexterity! Gather the 3 strands of twine and tie a knot at the top, leaving about 2 inches of slack. Keep your thumb at the base of the braid, holding the nut in its place. Repeat the steps, by threading the rest of the nuts to the outer pieces of twine before they are crossed over. The bracelet should wrap around your wrist at least two or three times. Good luck!!

Bracelet noeud coulant Forum de discussion " Fabriquer un bracelet " Marie09 janvier à 11h19 Bonjour,Je suis à la recherche du nom ou de la technique pour faire les noeuds qui permettent de fabriquer des braclets.Lacet utilisé coton ciré1 noeud à chaque extrémité et coulissantMerci Alcosinus09 janvier à 17h49 Hello marie, Quels types de bracelet souhaites-tu faire ? Al Guy09 janvier à 21h37 Bonsoir Marie,je viens juste mettre mon grain de sel à la suite du message de Alcosinus (re-salut bébé joufflu et néanmoins ami) pour ajouter une précision : lorsque les deux nœuds coulissants sont faits, les deux brins qui les séparent doivent avoir la même longueur — pour la simple raison qu'en réglant le serrage en tirant sur l'un et/ou l'autre, ils demeurent exactement parallèles, "collés" l'un contre l'autre (simple question d'esthétique).Cela se fait simplement lors de la mise en place et du serrage des deux nœuds en question.J'espère avoir été clair mais...

Bracelet noeud marin 27 octobre 2010 3 27 /10 /octobre /2010 22:13 Aujourd'hui un petit tuto pour réaliser un très joli bracelet avec un noeud de carrick. Ultra simple à réaliser. Pour le réaliser, il faut juste travailler avec deux cordages en double. Le noeud s'exécute comme un noeud de carrick traditionnel. Le premier cordage plié en deux réalise une demi clé. Le deuxième cordage plié en deux lui aussi passe deux fois dessous, ensuite il passera dessus, dessous... ... pour ensuite traverser en exploitant les ganses, à savoir : dessus, dessous, dessus. Vous n'avez plus qu'à passer les deux extrémités à travers leur deux ganses respectives, le tour est joué.
