DIY Ribbon & Pearl Bracelet

Ribbon Pearl Bracelet Tutorial

Here’s a another simple, fun DIY bracelet tutorial for you. This was actually my Sunday afternoon project, but it took me a couple days to compile the pictures.  But here it is for you!

I love this DIY ribbon and pearl woven bracelet for its classic girly look and of course, how easy it do! It works well as a stand alone bracelet or even stacked with some other bracelets for an arm party. It’s a very elegant piece, and I think it would look worn at a more formal event such a wedding!

  1. Prepare your materials:
    - You will need approx 20 inches of ribbon – about 3 times the length of your wrist.
    - Pearls or beads.  I’ve used 12mm beads in the tutorial
    - Stretch cord or stringing material
    - A needle
  2. Thread your stretch cord through your needle, ( you may need a needle with a larger loop hole depending on the size of your stretch cord.)  Then sew through a fold of ribbon.
  3. Thread the needle through bead.
  4. Then thread the needle through another fold.
  5. Repeat steps 2-3 til you have all your beads strung.
  6. Tie the ends of the cord ends together into a secure knot and tie the ribbon into a pretty bow.

You can also make this pearl &  ribbon woven bracelet with many different  variations such as weaving through extra folds or uneven widths of ribbon for a more creative fun look. I’ve even seen this bracelet done with 2 colors of ribbon for a dual toned look as well. I hope you give this pearl ribbon bracelet tutorial a try!

 

But if you’re too lazy to make it yourself,  you can also buy it in my Etsy shop!
