DIY Beaded Bracelets


I'm a huge DIY junkie and love anything that I can make on my own! Yesterday I decided to venture to my local craft store  and pickup a few very cheap items to make these cute beaded bracelets. Honestly, it only cost me $5 to make an entire stack of bracelets and took no more than 10 minutes for each one! How could it get any better than that!?


Supplies: bangles, scissors, hot glue gun, pearl string beads (wedding department at Michael's) and embroidery thread.
Instructions: 
  1. Hot glue a string of the pearl beads around the bangle
  2. Cut a 2 yard strand of the embroidery thread and fold it in half.
  3. Wrap the embroidery thread twice in between each bead
  4. Hot glue the ends and your done!
