Here is a tutorial that will allow you to create an original and trendy jewel in less than 20 minutes! Yes the Tie and Dye is back! Choose your color of Tie and Dye silk ribbon before you start. You will find this selection of ribbon at the bottom of the page. There are pink tones for a cute effect, red for a glamorous look or black and grey to stay chic in all circumstances. For this example, we have chosen a Tie and Dye effect that goes from turquoise to orange with a touch of brown. These colors will be perfect for a boho style this summer.
Also, bring along a set of jewellery pliers. You will need a pair of cutting pliers, a round pliers and a flat pliers. These will come in handy for all your future jewelry making, but they are also great for small DIY jobs.
Once you have gathered all the material listed at the bottom of the page, you just have to follow the steps below.
You will have 9 sequins left after making this bracelet. You can also use them with these tutorials. And if you buy more than 5 bags, you can take advantage of the wholesale price and pay less per bag! Think about it :)
Fold the ribbon in half and tie it on the rush before the first nail.
Wrap one end around the bracelet, always in the same direction, with the ribbon lying flat.
Do the same with the other end of the ribbon, wrapping it around the rush, but in the other direction so that the two ends cross each other at each turn. At the end, tie them together with a simple knot, then a bow tie.
We will add the sequins on the Bohemian bracelet. Prepare 11 sequins by threading each one onto a ring and closing the opening of the ring. The two ends of the ring must touch. If you do not know the gesture to close a ring, (you must not bring the two ends on the same axis) go here to see the gesture in video: How to open and close a ring for costume jewelry.
Cut 11 pieces of copper wire of 6 cm. Pass a wire in a first ring, fold the wire in two and cross the two ends around the stud of the bracelet. Wrap each end twice around the nail, then cut off the excess wire and fold the ends over the nail shaft.
Add a ring to all but the two smallest studs of the bracelet. You may want to trim the ends of the ribbon if you don't like them.
