Calling all beaders! Let’s make a leather wrapped bracelet! These are super easy to make and work up quickly. The hardest part is deciding which beads to use and which technique to follow. There are so many ways to leather wrap a bracelet from one single row that wraps 2-3 times around the wrist to a double or triple row wrap that goes around the wrist once. Make whatever you would like to make but in order to fit any wrist, keep it at a length of around 7.5 to 8 inches (at least, or multiply that by the amount of times it goes around the wrist) The theme is “winter” so your wrap should somehow make you think of winter either in color or the shape of the button or any charm(s). For this swap, you must have at least a rating of 4.95 with no flaky looking swaps in your profile in the last 6 months. Sorry no newbies but feel free to leave a message if you’re interested in doing a private swap. You can do a You Tube or Pinterest search for “leather wrap bracelet tutorial” for lots of great information and help. You can also have a look at my Pinterest board http://www.pinterest.com/deanieshort/beadwork-leather-wraps/. Since these really don’t take long to make, I set the mailing deadline for the Friday after Christmas. Please manage your time if you sign up and get started before you get busy with the holidays. Let me know if you have any questions! |
