I actually really love this. I love it because it’s not only ridiculously easy to make, but it’s pretty, versatile, and you can wear it alone as a bracelet, as shown here, or poking out from sleeves of a sweater {if you make two}, or even layered over the cuffs of a silk blouse. I was hoping to get those photos included here as well, but my husband photographer is in LA today and I don’t have extra hands. But maybe I’ll wear them soon with an outfit so I can show you just how fun of an accessory they can be!
What You’ll Need…
- Beaded lace embroidered trim appliques {I used old ones I repurposed from this old sweater DIY} You can find appliques at Ebay or at Glory’s House online or at your local fabric, trim, or craft store.
- Small frog closures in a matching color
- Needle/thread/scissors
Steps…
Place your applique around your wrist to determine how you want it to rest. I liked mine a bit jagged or asymmetrical, overlapping onto my hand a bit. This will also look pretty peeking out of a sweater.
Mark your determined size/fit with pins.
Pin your frog closure in place, check to make sure it fits correctly on your wrist.
Now simply hand-stitch it into place, hiding your thread as you sew.
And… Voila!
