Anyway, I thought I'd share the tutorial for leather wrapped bracelets here too, as I'm seeing so many of these lovely bracelets about at the moment. The tutorial is well written and has some good photos, and there are also a couple of useful videos to help you too, like the one below. I haven't had time to make one myself yet, but from everything I've read you need a lot of thread and it's difficult to attach more thread neatly if you need to half way through the bracelet, so do make sure that you cut enough to start with, and use something like beeswax or thread heaven to help make the thread easier to work with. You can find the tutorial here!

Thank you for posting this tutorial, my
ReplyDeletemother-in-law gave me a wrapped bracelet to fix. I was dubious about fixing it because the bead thread had broken and I didn't want to take apart the knots on either end of the bracelet. Nor did I know how the thread was wrapped around the leather. Now I do!! Thanks!
Glad I could help Danielle! Good luck with the mending!
