Day 1 of BRACELET WEEK!

brace·let /ˈbreɪslɪt/ [breys-lit] noun 1. an ornamental band or circlet for the wrist or arm or, sometimes, for the ankle.

How about an entire week of bracelets? Bangles, cuffs and MORE!

You know you're excited...

Yarn covered bangle made from a water bottle.
 How to:

Cut a horizontal piece from a water bottle. Yep, just take some scissors and cut straight across in whatever thickness you desire. It is difficult to get a straight line, so I'd suggest marking two staight lines to cut along.

Now tie your yarn onto the new chunk of plastic and leave a 2-3 inch tail.

Wrap yarn around and around and around until you get annoyed/get all the way around the pice of plastic. Tie onto the 2-3 inch tail you started with.

Now, the fun part is embellishing! I thought it would be cute and simple to just tie a bow onto my bracelet. You can attach a felt flower, a brooch, a clip on earring, or whatever else you think is great!!
