Black macrame bracelet stack
The other day I noticed that I did not own any black bracelets when I looked through my accessories. I already knew how to do a square knot macrame bracelet, so I got some waxed black cord and black rattail, and started making a bracelet. When I finished it and wore it, I though my …
Beaded kumihimo bracelet
Continuing on with my kumihimo adventures, I started learning how to incorporate beads. With a normal braid, you need a thicker cord, but this time you will need beading cord and appropriately sized beads. Here, I've used 0.5mm cord, size 8/0 seed beads, and 4mm crystals and pearls. You start by braiding a little with …
“Jodie” kumihimo bracelet
I bought this book from a Waterstones a month ago called "A Beginner's Guide to Kumihimo" by Donna Mckean-Smith as I wanted to learn how to make beaded kumihimo bracelets. I highly recommend it to anyone looking to make kumihimo after this attempt! I did find out that the sort of beads and cord that …

To keep myself occupied though, I've purchased three jewellery kits from Queenbeads and will be posting about my …
Netted bracelet
This design came from the book Beadweaving Brilliance by Kumiko Mizuno. I have talked about this book before; it teachings off-loom beading techniques. I used the book to learn netting and closely followed the design. The beads needed are two colours of seed beads, bugle beads and faceted beads. Make sure that they all colour code. …
Pokemon Mega Stone Bracelet
MCM London happened two weeks ago and I cosplayed Serena from Pokemon (sort of) for one day! I had the clothes and the hat ready, but the only thing I didn't have was the mega stone bracelet. Well, I found the perfect bracelet base for it whilst looking for craft materials one day! It's a …
