Wrapped Cord Bracelet


Last night I found this tutorial through Pinterest to make these bracelets.  They looked so cute and easy that I had to try it right away!  They turned out really well and were even easier than they looked!  Basically you fold a piece of cord in half and put a button on the folded end.  Then use thread to string the beads between the cord.  But rather than recreate the tutorial, I'm going to suggest you just visit the site. She did a really good job of making it really detailed with plenty of pictures.  The only thing I did differently is that, instead of using Hypo Tube Cement to glue down the string at the end, I used Mod Podge, which seemed to work just as well.




I'm thinking these bracelets will look really cute with a few together or combined with a couple different kinds of bracelets.  And there are endless possibilities of how they can look!  On the first (top) one, I just used one kind of bead.  On the second, I alternated between two different kinds.  The website also suggests putting two beads side-by-side.  As I said, endless possibilities!
