Even a child can weave a leather bracelet, and such an ornament looks very noble and adult-like. Depending on the size of the bracelet, its color and shape, it can be worn both on the wrist and above the elbow, and some even adorn the ankles in this way.
It is necessary
- - thick leather laces for weaving
- - 2 thin leather laces for tying
Instructions
Step 1
The clasp on a leather bracelet can be anything from a thin leather tie to a silver jewelry carabiner. The easiest way to make a bracelet is with a string.
Step 2
Take 3 or 6 thick leather laces. The thickness of the future bracelet depends on their number.
Step 3
Connect the ends of the laces on one side, wrap them tightly with a thin cord, tie a strong knot. It is better to pass one end of a thin cord so that it is hidden in a common bundle, this will help the bracelet look neat.
Step 4
Start braiding the laces like a regular braid. Make three strands of them, put the right strand on the middle one, then put the left strand on the strand that has become the middle one, and weave until you get the base for the bracelet of the desired length.
Step 5
Cut the ends of the laces to the same length. In the same way as at the beginning of work, tie the other end of the bracelet with a thin cord. Cut the thin laces so that they are not too long, tie them together - the bracelet is ready.
