DIY: Jeweled Cord Bracelet

We love Erin from Thanks, I Made It almost as much as we love all of her DIY projects. Her jeweled cord bracelet will go with everything and add a pop of glitz to any outfit…even try it as a necklace. And now…for Erin:

This post is going to be the start of several copycat tutorials. I really need to curb my online window shopping, because now I have many, many more DIY projects inspired by accessories I’ve found online. Luckily for me, I can hide all my ideas in my secret Pinterest board to keep the element of surprise– I love that they added that feature!

Anyway, to start things off, I made this DIY jeweled cord bracelet using this piece of arm candy as an inspiration point. I went with classic black and silver, but let your imagination run wild when it comes to color combinations.

Tools and materials:
Black cord long enough to go around your wrist
Sew-on jewels (my crystal ones are these and my black square ones are available here)
2 cord end caps
Jump rings and clasp (and extender chain, optional)
Jewelry pliers
Needle and thread
Super glue and toothpick for applying the glue

Thread your needle and securely sew it to the cord. I started in the middle to make sure I evenly spaced my jewels.


Begin sewing on the crystals, going through the cord and holes in the sew-on jewels.

Add all the jewels. I alternated colors, but tried to change up the positioning.

Place glue in the end caps and attach the cord. Allow to dry, then use pliers to add the jump rings and clasp.


That’s it! Happy making! I’d love to know if you try this one.

I'm going to copycat this diy, but instead of using cord, I'm going to use an old soft 80's belt. I'll cut it, sew the ends with needle and thread, add a snap and use similar studs/rhinestones such as you showed. I'm going to have an arm party, and everyone is invited.
Sheryl Edwards:
Love it! You did a fabulous job of making it! I would use a brown cord and crystals of browns and greens.
Ella P.:

I would use the same colors as you did. Looks nice like this.
Liza:
I would use a dark purple cord and clear and purple crystals. Around the cord I would wrap a very thin sparkly cord.
Stephanie F.:
Love DIY bracelets! Id probably use a brown base with yellow and dark orange crystals for a nice rustic look!
Kaeli Rivera:
