Currently, the stores have a huge number of different bracelets for every taste. However, if you want to have a unique thing in your arsenal, then try to make it yourself, for example, you can take ordinary laces as a basis.
It is necessary
- - a long cord with a diameter of three to four millimeters;
- - a clasp for a bracelet;
- - tape measure;
- - scissors.
Instructions
Step 1
First, measure the diameter of your wrist. Next, take the cord in your hands, fold it in half, then thread the side in the form of a loop through the hole of the fastener. Line the ends of the cord, then cut the end in half into a loop.
Step 2
Lay the workpiece in front of you so that the ends of the cords are "facing" you. First pass the top right end of the cord under the two bottom cords, then overlap it over the top right cord. After these manipulations, pass the end of the upper right cord into the left loop, which was obtained when tying this knot. Tighten the cords properly.
Step 3
After one knot is made, proceed to the formation of the second knot, but it must be done "mirrored" to the previous one. That is, take the top right cord in your hands, carefully pass it under the two bottom laces, then place it over the top left cord. In turn, thread the upper left lace into the right loop formed when tying the knot.
Step 4
Thus, continue to weave the bracelet until you reach the required length (for this, the diameter of the wrist is measured).
As soon as the length is reached (it is worth noting that the length of the fasteners must also be included in the length of the bracelet, only in this case the finished product will "sit" well), carefully tie the other part of the fastener and cut off the excess length of the cords (the ends of the cords can be scorched with a lighter flame or candles).
Step 5
Fasten the clasp: make sure it is in working order. A beautiful bracelet made of cords is ready.
