Pearl Charm Bracelet

Hello!

Done with the summer festival that I work for and back in town from a trip to San Diego!

It's time to get back to crafting and blogging about it.

The latest project I did took me all of an hour (including the trip to the craft store... I ran out of headpins!) and was inspired by Honestly... WTF's most recent DIY. Their goal was to teach people how to wire wrap to make the charms for the bracelet. The DIY is easy to follow and has good pictures.

Here's Honestly... WTF's how to:
DIY Charm Bracelet

And here's my version of their bracelet.

My bracelet uses glass pearls from my bead stash, brass bead caps, brass headpins, and brass chain. I love how it turned out!

Happy crafting!

Friendship Bracelets

As many of us did, I used to make friendship bracelets out of floss and during my hippie stage, hemp. Everyday I visit the blog Honestly WTF and check out if they have any new DIYs. They usually post at least one per week. Last summer they posted quite a few bracelet tutorials including making chevron friendship bracelets, which I have never done. I always did the plain jane versions with all the colors in a row.

Here's the link to the tutorial and my first attempt at a chevron style friendship bracelet. I was going for nautical but it looks more patriotic and I think I should have used more than 6 strands of floss.
