how to make a fabric bracelet

This is a project that I have been teaching via my Etsy shop and at 

various art retreats for a few years now.

You can also make colorful necklaces and other soft sculpted jewelry 

and home decor items with this technique.

I am happy to share it with you.

enjoy!

supplies needed:

pipe cleaners/chenille stems, fabric, felt,

basic sewing supplies,

optional: beads, crochet supplies

 

You can stitch anything on it... bits of other fabrics, lace, felt beads, metal findings etc...

When you are done, the fabric bracelets will look like this.

RECYCLE:

For these, I used fabric from an old T-shirt, a dress 

and random scraps from other sewing projects.

You can also add bits of crochet stitches to your fabric bracelet:
