DIY: Beaded Cuff


You will need a cuff, an assortment of beads (sead beads, etc.) , leather, leather cement, embellishing glue, pendants or stones, pencil, and illusion cord. Start by rolling the cuff over the leather to get an imprint. then use a pencil to trace the outline of the imprint. Cut out the shape. Use the leather cement to glue the leather to the cuff. Glue on the stones or pendants with the embellishment glue. Tie abead to the end of the illusion cord and then start stringing on sead beads. Once you have a string of beads long enough to go around your cuff, secure the other end by tying a bead, then glue it around the edge of the cuff. Cut off any excess string. Make more bead strands and glue them around your stones/pendants. Continue this step until there is no space between the bead strands and the edge of the bracelet. Glue multiple strands around the edge of the cuff until you are satisfied with the look. Fill in the rest of the cuff with beads in any pattern you like. Let it dry and you're done.
