The answer is absolutely positive! Now, in today’s project, I’m gonna make an easy 3-strand bracelet out of these two supplies. Hope you’ll like it! Here we go.

Supplies needed in the 3-strand bracelet:

8mm Abacus Glass Beads
Button
1mm Cowhide Leather Cord
Scissors

How to start the 3-strand bracelet?

Step 1: Cut 3 strands of 1mm leather cord to approximately 30cm long and thread through the shank of button. Keep 3cm for the short ends, make a loop around it with the longer ones and then pass the longer ones down through the loop. Fasten the knot slightly.

Step 2: Straighten the leftover leather cords and decide the ideal length of bracelet. Next, find the 1/3 location and tie an overhand knot.

Step 3: Slide on the 8mm glass beads to make the middle 1/3 of bracelet. Finally, secure the beads with another overhand knot.

Step 4: Gather all 3 leather cords by an overhand knot.

Step 5: Tie another overhand knot at end to create a loop just allows the button pass through.

Step 6: Trim off the excess cords!

Done!
