Earlier this week I posted a tutorial on how to make tassels out of embroidery thread. I knew I wanted to create a piece of jewelry with the tassels for a fun and colorful look. I decided on tassel bracelets. I used small beads in two different colors, but you can use as many colors as you want. The smaller sized beads also make the tassel bracelets great for stacking!
You’ll need:
– Tassels
– Beads
– Bead and Jewelry Cord
– Scissors
1. Start by cutting a 12″ long piece of stretchy jewelry cord. Triple knot one end of the cord, leaving about a 1″ tail.
2. String the beads onto the cord. Keep measuring the bracelet to your wrist, and adjust the size accordingly. When the bracelet is the correct length, add a tassel to the end.
3. Finish the bracelet by tightly double knotting the cord at the end. Cut off any excess cord.
And you’re done! A simple and quick DIY with great results. Imagine the all the different color combinations you could do! Have fun!!
