Trim Bracelets Tutorial

Trim Bracelets

I thought of this when I was trying to come up with something to do with small pieces of trims/ribbons I would have left over from projects.



They are quick to make and require no jewelry making experience. Here we go......



Let's Begin



Start by gathering what you need:
-Leftover trims, ribbons, etc. at least 8" long
-Scissors
-Embroidery Thread
-Needle
-Clasp (I used toggle clasps)
-Glue and/or heat sealing instrument (candle, wood burning tool)



Cut the ribbons and trims to be about 8 inches. You can measure your wrist and change this if needed, but I made it so it had extra room on my wrist but not enough to fall off.



I always heat seal with a candle flame.





All Done! Enjoy them or share them with someone. Maybe even just decorate a cup.
