Bracelet DIY

Hey guys!
today I'm going to show you how I made this really cool bracelet out of a couple of beads and yarn.
It was sooo easy!

It looks like this:

So, what you'll need is some yarn and beads.

I used small golden beads on a loose thread.

First you have to cut 50" of yarn, find the middle and make a loop(see picture). Then I'd take another (shorter) piece of yarn and put it through the loop and tie it around something heavy so that the bracelet will stay in place while you make it, it'll make the whole process a lot easier!

 

Now the fun can begin!

step 0: attach the thread -with the beads on it- to the loop

step 1: place a bead in the right spot and take one of the yarn-threads

and put it over the other creating a loop, so it kind of looks like a "q"

step 2-3: then take the end of the same thread and pull it through the loop

step 4: make sure it's tight enough

step 5: then place another bead and repeat!

after you've done that for a while it should look something like this:

You like? I do :)

When you've made a long enough piece so that it fits your hand, sew the ends together or place another bigger bead on one end and then you already have a loop on the other :)



Now you're finished!!

Thanks for reading and I hope you enjoyed my tutorial!

Head jewelry DIY

Hey guys!
I have an exciting do-it-yourself project.
I'm going to show you how I made a piece of head jewelry out of
3 old necklaces. they were broken anyways:

These pictures inspired me:

and my favorite..

To start you'll need :

-3 old necklace-chains. They don't have to look exactly the same. Mine are all different, and I love it)

-a jump ring

-some kind of stone, or anything you want really:)

-something to close the jump ring and to cut the chains

Next you should thread the chains up on the jump ring and close it

Then you have to adjust the length of the chains so that the "sides" will be just a little bit shorter (in my case). Just make sure not to cut them too short! Then you have to tie them together at the back. It doesn't really matter if it doesn't look perfect cause no one will really see it as long as you don't put it on backwards ;)

Last but not least, I glued a pretty little stone in the middle :)

So there you have it! It takes about 5-10 minutes -after you find necklaces-
and then you just have to let the clue dry.

I absolutely love this. Especially the fact that it cost me absolutely nothing!
