A Fun and Quirky Bracelet!



I am so excited for today's project. Do you know anyone down on life..who maybe needs a little "luck"?  This is seriously such a fun gift to put together. You can make it as personal as you would like. 


To start out, you need washers (yes, I said that right!), some beading wire, some clasps, and some beads.

Take your plain washers...
Use some small alphabet stamps and stamp the washers with Staz-On ink. This will stay on permanently once it dries! My washers say "Lucky", "wish away", and "Good for 1 wish"

Bead up your bracelet..see how fun and personal you can make this!

I wanted to make a little bag to go along with it..so I sewed a large rectagle together (or you can just use one piece of fabric.  This is another really fun trick..Have you ever stamped on fabric and used it as a guide to embroider?  It is so fun!
I sewed a little drawstring line and put a ribbon through it..added the bracelet..and Voila, a fun and personal gift to someone who needs just a bit of lifting!

So, what do you think?

Don't forget to submit your St. Patty's/Rainbow posts to me at kikicreates at gmail dot com for the chance to be featured on Saturday. I have had some really fun ones come in. Cannot wait to see what you make!

  3. That is adorable! I've never heard of that ink before . . . looks just as cute (and easier than) the metal stamping. Thanks!
