step 2<\/strong> \nTake your larger size rhinestone trim and your embroidery floss.<\/p>\nCut short 2 inch pieces of each color.<\/p>\n
Loop each one around your rhinestone trim and pull tight.<\/p>\n
You can use your crochet hook to pull the loops through, it makes it much easier.<\/p>\n
Measure your chain or count the stones on your rhinestone trim and add your embroidery thread tassels at equal distances from each other. <\/p>\n
step 3<\/strong> \nChoose one of your embroidery thread colors for your braid.<\/p>\nI used 6 strands approximately 1.5 times as long as my small rhinestone trim.<\/p>\n
Tie a knot in one end of your embroidery thread and make a braid the same length as your small rhinestone trim.<\/p>\n
Tie a knot at the end of your braid. <\/p>\n
step 4<\/strong> \nWith the same color embroidery thread you will sew your braid to your small rhinestone trim.<\/p>\nStart by securing your thread by sewing it back and forth inside your braid. \nThen wrap it around your rhinestone trim in between your stones and sewing through your braid.<\/p>\n
Do this for the entire length of your bracelet. <\/p>\n
step 5<\/strong> \nAdd your closure to your large chain.<\/p>\nI attached one jump ring to each end of the large chain to attach the closure. <\/p>\n
step 6<\/strong> \nChoose a color of your embroidery thread and sew your large rhinestone trim to one side of your large chain and your braid to the other. <\/p>\nIf you like you can put a small drop of fabric glue on the ends of your braid and where youve sewn your chain to your rhinestone trims. <\/p>\n
This is a great bracelet to wear either alone or stacked with others. It really adds a lot of sparkle and color, with a fun mix of textures.<\/p>\n
