Wrap Bracelet "Tutorial"

April 16, 2013
This is the most complicated tutorial on my blog to date. I kid, I kid. You probably already have everything on hand, it's just a matter of repurposing. And maybe you've already done this before. melissaesplin-wrap-bracelet-leather-tutorial-2 Yes, make an awesome, hip, trendy, amazing wrap bracelet in a matter of seconds. melissaesplin-wrap-bracelet-leather-tutorial-4 Find the skinniest skinny belt in your closet. Wrap it around your wrist a ton of times. Fasten. melissaesplin-wrap-bracelet-leather-tutorial-5 Mind blown? I sure hope so. The gold belt above I scored as part of a sweater set at H&M. I made the hot pink one from leather cording and a lever-back clasp. melissaesplin-wrap-bracelet-leather-tutorial-6 I measured the leather cording to my waist and glued the leather into the end cups. Each wrap took 2 minutes to make and an hour for the glue to dry. So I can wear these as itty bitty skinny belts or multi-wrap bracelets. I like these as bracelets as they're flexible, comfortable and don't get in the way. melissaesplin-wrap-bracelet-leather-tutorial-1 Outfit details:
