I made these little token gifts for my dear friend. I used some ancient old bangles I had knocking around, some embroidery thread and some pritt stick. All it takes is some patience to sit and carefully bind the thread around the bangles. I put pritt stick on the bangle to help hold the thread in place. I also ended up using a little bit of superglue on the end piece after I had knotted it off.
This idea has a lot of future potential. I really enjoyed the effect once I got a bit more creative with the colour striping. The possibilities are endless in terms of colour combinations! I hope they liked them. I am always really embarrassed when I give a home made gift. But I hope they appreciated the sentiment, and I chose colours that really reminded me of them to make it more personal.
A very satisfying way to make something from nothing.
