How to make a leather wrap bracelet?
Step 1: wrap beaded leather cord
As a starter, cut out a long enough leather cord and melt one end with lighter to make it pointed to thread beads easier. Make a knot at the other end leaving about 5cm from the edge.
1st, thread the faceted cube bead with a black round bead at each side and push them next to the knot. Then knot again for securing;
2nd, make another knot about 5cm from previous knot. Thread four black round beads and three cube beads alternate with each other, then knot for securing;
3rd, loop the long tail and tie it with the short tail measuring your wrist;
4th, loop the long tail in opposite direction to wrap another circle without tying.
Step 2: make another bead strand
5th, cut out a string of nylon thread and thread seven agate beads;
6th, separate these beads with knots as shown;
7th, wrap the agate beads strand around the beaded leather cord and tie the ends to both side of the faceted cube bead;
8th, tie the ends of double leather cords by wrapping many circles around with a short nylon thread. Trim off excess cord and melt the ends.
Look at the final look:
