Bohemian wooden bangle bracelet tutorial ♥

 Today I'm excited to show you one of the easiest and most beautiful tutorials I ever made.

And let me tell you, my friend to whom I showed the final product adores it so much she even wants me to make one for her.

I came up with this tutorial when I saw this bangle bracelet on polyvore.
And since I liked it so much I tried to find a way of how to do it myself.

What you will need:

- a wooden bangle bracelet

- 30 ft. long leather strap, 0.20 inch wide

Yep, that's all. No more, no less. Awesome, huh?

Take the leather strap and fold it in half. 

Tie a knot with the two ends and make sure the strap is not twisted.

Take the other end of the folded strap and put it through the bangle bracelet.

With this end form a loop and thread the knotted end through it.

Pull it tight so that the newly formed knot is arranged in the middle of the bracelet.

Now take the leather strap and push it back into the opposite direction through the bangle bracelet.

Again, form a loop and push the leather strap through it. Pull tight.

Once more, take the strap and push it through the bangle bracelet into the opposite direction you just did.

Repeat this whole process until you get to the beginning.

The inner pattern should look something like this. Always make sure the strap is not twisted.

Make sure the gaps in between the leather strap knottings are not too big.

Push gently minimizing those gaps so that most of the bangle bracelet is covered.

Untie the knot at the end of the strap, take one end and push it under the very last part of the strap.

Now take the other end of the strap and push it under the same strap into the opposite direction.

Tie a knot. But this time make sure it is reaaallly tight and secure.

Cut off the ends.

Pin It

Et voilá. Now you have your own boho bangle bracelet.
And when someone asks, tell them you made it yourself.
'cause diy stuff rocks.

I hope this tutorial inspired you.
And if you have any ideas of how to improve this gorgious bangle bracelet please let me know.
I would love to hear your thoughts.
