I've been making these chain bracelets all summer; it only just occurred to me to show you guys when I was thinking about DIY posts I could share!
they're pretty easy to make! they look daunting but it's mostly just a case of looping a long piece of thread through the chain links, knotting and repeating the process until you run out of chain (see not so bad after all!)
I brought my gold coloured chain from hobbycraft where you can buy it by the meter, it costs a few pounds and makes at least 5 bracelets..bargain! here's a little guide on how to make them:
you can use all kinds of colours I have blue, purple and yellow ones, I've seen a version with skinny leather strips instead of string/thread which looks great! get creative and see what you'll be surprised what you'll come up with..
hope you like it!
