You can easily do all this with your own hands, and for this you will not need special tools!
Gentle addition
Thin silver bracelets with small beads perfectly complement the airy summer fabrics.
YOU WILL NEED: for one bracelet: 25 cm silver wire. 6 beads. Threads for embroidery. Pliers. Glass.
HOW TO MAKE: String the beads onto the wire. Wrap the wire once around the glass. The ends are firmly twisted and squeezed flat. Remove the bracelet from the glass. Tie the embroidery threads in a knot and wrap tightly around the bracelet, evenly distributing the beads. The end of the thread is also firmly knotted.
Beautifully twisted
Such a belt with a spectacular slotted pattern can be made by yourself. The following is a step-by-step guide.
YOU WILL NEED: Nappa leather approx. 2 mm, size OK. 70 x 20 cm. 1 buckle with a pin, 4 cm wide. Threads for embroidery. Sharp scissors or knife. Laying flizelin flizofiks. Puncher, thread for sewing.
STEP 1 Cut out the details from the skin: 2x 68 cm long, 2x - 50 cm, 4 cm wide, without allowances. Sew together two different lengths of leather belt parts. Iron allowances.Iron the flizofiks gasket, remove the paper layer from it.
STEP 2 Iron the second half of the belt, cut the end obliquely. Stitch the belt to the edge. Punch a hole 4 cm from the straight end and attach a buckle to this end.
STEP 3 Punch a hole at a distance of 15 cm from the chamfered end in the middle, then punch another 5 holes at 2.5 cm intervals.
STEP 4 Through the entire free length of the belt, make cuts with an interval of 5 mm. Start at a distance of 1 cm from the seam and approximately 10 cm from the buckle and the first hole at the other end.
STEP 5 Twist the cuts 1 time, on the upper side, fix with “back to the needle” stitches, then on the reverse side, fix with the same stitches, performing them in the opposite direction.
