April DIY: All about bracelets!

If this blog seems neglected, it might be because I've been drowning in beads!
For April, I gathered a few cheap n' easy bracelet DIY projects and here there are (click the links for original instructions):

April DIY - all about bracelets Honestly... WTF's Braided Bead Bracelet

They were all fairly easy to make, but I did get frustrated a time or two (or ten) with the itsy-bitsy beads or with the hex-nuts that wouldn't stay in place! I used some string from Target for the two hex-nut bracelets, but I wish it had been a thicker (is that the word I'm looking for?) string; they would've looked sturdier!

Other than that, I'm pretty happy with the results and am already wearing them out!

Honestly... WTF has lots of jewelry DIYs and they're all listed here! The girls actually came up with a Macramé bracelet DIY not too long ago and now that I'm a Macramé "connoisseur," I'll definitely give it a try!
