Yarn Bangles

Hello, today I will be showing you how to create these oh so chic yarn bangles.

You will be needing:
Yarn (roughly 3 yards long)
Scissors
Hot glue gun
Bangle (it can be wood plastic ect.)

My bangles, I got for about $3 for a 3 pack at Fred Meyers, but you can also get old wood ones at thrift shops, Goodwill or Salvation Army.

1. First, measure out your yarn and knott 1 end. Wrap the yarn in to a ball starting at the un-knotted end (wrapping all of the yarn in to a ball will make it easier to wind around the bangle). Hot glue knotted end of the yarn inside of the braclet.


2. Losely wind the ball of yarn around the bangle, making sure that there are no gaps.


3. Finish winding the bangle in yarn, knot the end.


4. Clip string as CLOSE as possible to the knot.


5. Add a dab of hot glue on the inside of the bangle.


6. Firmly press knotted end in to hot glue. Hold untill set.


7. This is what it should look like is what it should look like when the glue is dried. Pull off any lose glue strings.


8. If you don't want any extra decorations, then congratulations! Your Yarn bangle is done!


9. But, for all of you girls who want a more interesting bracelet. Here we go! I knotted the ends of 2 different colored yarns together. Clip extra off ends.


10. Glue knotted end on inside of bangle, wrap widley around bangle. (This makes long slanting stripes)


11. Hot glue knotted end inside of bangle. Hold untill set.


And ta-da!! You have ADORABLE yarn bangles that are cute for a casual movie with the girls, or a night at a party.


I hope you all enjoyed todays tutorial on yarn bangles, with love,
