Can you
guys believe we are already half way through the week and already in March? Today
we got more snow, so depressing… I was so ready for spring and already had my patent
red loafers out for a stroll, but no… I forget, we are in only March in Norway so I’ll
have to keep my Kodiaks / Uggs out for a
bit longer.
For this
DIY you will need a pair of old earrings, needle and thread, fabric glue,
pliers (and scissors) snap bracelet (If you guys have a Whimseybox subscription there was one in it (YAY)! If not, WHY??? its the coolest thing since the Birking bag, ACTUALLY!!!) or snap reflex band, and 2,5 inch wide grosgrain ribbon. Make sure the ribbon you get is wider than the
snap bracelet! That way you get some width to your cuff and enough room to glue
the ribbon together on either side.
I only had
a snap reflex band at hand so I pealed of the reflex and tried to make it
shorter not the best choice but once it was done and the sharp edges were concealed
by black duct tape it worked pretty well. This DIY would work so much better with a snap
bracelet though! I divided my earrings in to pieces and made a pattern, I sowed
the pieces to the ribbon. Then I glued the ribbon to the snap bracelet. (make sure it can still snapp shut, you dont want the ribbon to short in the edges. ) Let the stunner dry up and then you are ready to take it on a stroll!
Have fun with it :)
