DIY Braided Bead Bracelet - Honestly WTF 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. Because honestly, you can never have too many . . . 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)

Fusion Beads, bead, beading, sterling, seed beads, charm, swarovski, lampwork, glass, jewelry, pearls Step 1 Cut the cord to twice the length of the desired bracelet size PLUS 12 inches. For example, a 7.5-inch bracelet will require 27 inches of cord. Slide a button to the center of the piece. Tie both lengths into an overhand knot beneath the button. Step 2 If the hole in the button is a bit too small for the cord, cut the cord at an angle to make it easier to string on. Step 3 Clip the button into a clip board. Step 4 Cut the thread about 8 feet long, thread the needle, slide it to the center to double the thread. Step 5 Tie the thread around the cord on the left using a lark’s head knot. Step 6 String one bead.

DIY Macrame Bracelet - Honestly WTF Growing up by the beach in Southern California, the ability to knot a macrame bracelet was practically a right of passage. Although those days are long behind us, we’ve never forgotten the ever-so-simple square knot technique. This time, however, we’re replacing hemp and wooden beads for more updated elements like colorful nylon cord and glossy metal charms. Happy knotting! You’ll need: Start by cutting the knotting cord into two 30 inch, two 20 inch and one 10 inch lengths. Center the 30 inch cord under the two middle strands. Pull tightly and slide the knot up to the top. Finish the 2nd half of the square knot by folding the left cord over the middle strands and under the right cord. Pull tightly and repeat the steps – left, right, left, right . . . To finish the knots, thread one of the cords onto a needle and sew up the center of 3-4 knots along the backside. Repeat the same step on the other cord. After sewing up both knotting cords, trim away any excess.

eighteen25 Painted Leather Bracelet D.I.Y. I'm so excited to share this D.I.Y. with you today! If you love the look of geometric bracelets this season, this one is for you. Emma and I have a deep love for our local leather store and as a result, have a giant stash of leather scraps. 1-2. . Here's what you need to attach a snap to your bracelet. (can find this in any craft store in the sewing section), a hammer, and a hole punch tool 5. This is Emma's pretty creation. These bracelets make great gifts. A Bath Pouf. That, Um, Looks Like a Rose.... Have you ever had an idea, and you thought "That's awesome! It'll be so fantastic!!" and then you make it, and you realize that it's really kind of kooky? That sort of happened here today. (well, a couple of days ago) I was trying to think of something to do with these old towels I had. It's a bath pouf. But, I thought I would post it anyway, on the odd chance that someone might want to make one. And if not, please enjoy a laugh at my expense :o) What you do, is cut about 1.5 inches off one side of towel (to get that finished edge), and two circles out of the middle. Gently pull the bottom thread to gather your strip, pretty tightly.Sew it onto one of the circles in a spiral shape, starting on the outside. Cut a 1.5"x6" strip, and finish the edges with a tight zig-zag stitch. Then pin the two circles together, with your 7" strip laid across the bottom.Sew a tight zig-zag around the two circles, sewing right over each side of the strip on the bottom. There. God bless! P.S.

(studs and pearls) David Graham: The Move-it Kit Entirely made of cardboard this DIY Move-it Kit designed by David Graham is a brilliant idea to help with all of those moving woes. I think I need of these when I go shopping in the future. [youtube] The kit itself comes with several adhesive cardboard parts that stick to the package, ultimately turning it into a durable trolley that can transform to fit virtually almost any size and shape. The parts stay bonded through a strong contact adhesive that can hold up to 20 kg. The project as well as others were made for the James Dyson Award. images from James Dyson Award 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. Stack the petal bead cap and a spacer bead on top. 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!

How to Make Leaf Skeletons | The Idea Room I wanted to share with you a project from one of my readers who shares with us how to make leaf skeletons. I LOVE this! I have several leafs in various forms displayed in my home and knew I needed to make some of her leaf skeletons to add to my decor. I have spent hours and tried various ways of making these. You need washing soda, not baking soda! Gather your leaves. Washing soda is a strong base so you may want to wear gloves when handling the leaves. You will add 3/4 cup of washing soda and 4 cups of water to your pot of leaves. Keep going, you will need to add more water so your pan doesn’t dry out. When 1.75 hours are up fill a glass baking dish with cool water. I carefully removed them and rinsed with water and added clean water to the pan. If you’re still with me, this is what I ended up with… I have a maple leaf which turned out not so well. 37.1Kstumbleupon

DIY Anklet These days we’re all for reincorporating the anklet back into our accessory repertoire. Made with thin chain and tiny charms, delicate anklets are the perfect summer trinket for those beachy bare feet or barely there sandals. This week’s DIY requires only two pairs of pliers and a handful of accessible supplies – which can then be used to make bracelets and necklaces, too! Cut the chain to length by measuring it around the ankle. Thread the wishbone charm onto the chain. Honestly, that’s it! The same method can be applied to a bracelet or necklace – just search for charms online and you’re ready to make charm jewelry all summer long! (all images by HonestlyWTF)
