His Bracelet

I suppose all my readers are women, or at least 90% of them. But if you are a male reading this or you're a gal that wants to surprise her better half, I have a perfect tutorial for you.

We've seen ladies with arm candies all over the place but now it is time for the cool guys to show of their wrists. So we are going to make a bracelet suitable for men.

You'll need a few supplies:

1. a piece of leather big enough to wrap it around the wrist; 2. a ribbon with some cool patter; 3. cotton or leather chord in a complementary color; 4.scissors; 5.glue + (not pictured above) ruler, pencil and a hole puncher.

Here we go:

1. measure your wrist and cut a stripe of leather of that length and as wide as your ribbon.

2. cut the ribbon 2 cm shorter and place it in the middle of the leather stripe

3. fold the leather ends over the ribbon and use some glue to fix them there

4. punch a small hole on both ends; if you don't have a puncher you can do this with scissors or a metal nail

5. pass the chord through one hole, from front to back
6. then wrap the cord a few times around the leather+ribbon piece
7. repeat the wrapping in the center and on the other end of the bracelet
8. use a square knot to make a sliding clasp

So what do you think. I bet he'll love it just because it's made by you, but it will also look so so cool stacked with other bracelets.

Love,
L.
