Very beautiful and original jewelry can be created from the most ordinary things. So, for example, you can create such a cute bracelet from ribbon and beads.

Ribbon & Bead Bracelet


To do this, we need a fishing line, beads, ribbon (satin or organza), a needle, scissors, a lighter or a candle. We select a tape of such a width that it coincides with the diameter of the beads. The needle should be with a narrow eye. Instead of fishing line, you can use a thread by the color of the tape.

need for a bracelet


We wind off a fishing line 20 cm long. We don’t need the entire length, it is necessary for the convenience of stringing beads and ribbons. We will sell the fishing line into the eye of the needle and tie a double knot at only one end.

thread through the needle


Take a tape 50 cm long. Retreating from the free end of 15 cm, we pierce the tape from below with a needle.

satin ribbon


Next, we make two stitches with an ordinary seam (1, 5 cm each). The length of the stitch depends on the diameter of the beads that we select for our bracelet.

needle in tape


We string the bead on the fishing line and pierce the tape with the needle down perpendicular to the extreme point of the bead.

string the bead


Having retreated 1, 5 cm, we bring the needle to the top and again we string the bead. Thus we string another 8 beads.

In the end, as in the beginning, we make two simple stitches without beads.

Holding the knot at the beginning, we tighten the beads to each other. We straighten the resulting accordion with our fingers.

When the desired effect is achieved, we tie a fishing line on a double knot at the end and cut off the excess end.

cut off


It is necessary to hide the knots from the fishing line, so in their place we tie knots from the tape on both sides. Do not tighten too tight. It is necessary to preserve the visual lightness of the bracelet and such nodes are needed to hide small flaws.

Cut the edges of the tape at an oblique angle and singe them with a lighter, barely touching the fire.

As a result, we got an original bracelet, which we made with our own hands.
