hello diy / wish bracelets:


This is a really quick & easy DIY project, and makes a sweet gift for friends :)
 


Supplies: 
- Alphabet stamps
- Drawstring cloth bags
- Cord (mine is from here)
- Beads (I used Czech Glass from here)
- Scissors
- Gift Tags


First I measured about 8" for the bracelet. This can be adjusted based
on the wrist size and always cut down if too much is cut.



String your beads in the center and tie a knot at each end of the beads.


Switch up colors or whatever!


Next, stamp your bag with whatever you'd like it to say. I stamped "wish".



Take a gift tag and write a little note explaining the bracelet. I wrote 
"Make a wish. Tie on your bracelet. When it falls off, your wish is granted" All done! :)

  7. It's mad how much bracelets or little gifts like this can cost so much, better to make them. Thank you showing how.

  20. So so cute. I have a silly question :) I'm trying to make these as gifts for some friends and for the life of me, I can't get any of the beads strung on the hemp twine. Do you have any tips? I ordered a bunch of different beads but they're all too narrow for the twine (which seems to be standard size?)

  22. Hi Danni,

    Would you be able to tell me what thickness of thread you used in these pictures and also the size bead. I would love to try these but don't want to order a bead that is too small for the hemp thread.

    Thanks so much for sharing!
