Brooch in the style of boho

Until recently, the boho style was used only in clothing. However, as it turned out later, it can also be used for the manufacture of accessories. In stores you can buy bags, belts and even boho-style jewelry, but we will go the other way and craft a leather brooch on our own.

Since the boho style implies layering, the manufacture of such an instrument implies a phased implementation, namely:

1. Cut a strip of 1 cm wide and 10 cm long from the skin. A volumetric rose should be formed from the prepared strip by stitching or gluing it together.
2. A circle with a diameter of 5 cm should be cut from lace. The circle must be gathered and stitched with folds.
3. A leather rose should be glued to the resulting lace blank.
4. Beads and beads should be glued to a rose. And accessories in the form of petals should be sewn or glued under a rose.
5. From the skin it is necessary to cut a circle corresponding to the diameter of the brooch, and stick it to the wrong side of the brooch.
6. At the final stage, the clasp should be glued to the brooch.

Such a leather brooch will certainly noticeably revive a boring blouse or dress and allow you to look original in any way.

Pearl bracelet

Do you like to wear bracelets? Perfectly! This accessory perfectly emphasizes the tenderness and beauty of the hand, therefore, every girl (woman) should have such a decoration and preferably not one. Bracelets can be any: gold, silver, made of beads, beads, leather, but the most beautiful and delicate is a pearl bracelet. Let’s try to create a simple bracelet with your own hands from pearls, especially since it is not at all difficult, and for its manufacture we need a minimum of materials:

• Pearl beads (large and small).
• Fishing line.
• Lock.
• Needle.
• Scissors.

In order to make a pearl bracelet, you need to cut the fishing line to the size of your wrist, leaving 3-5 cm in stock. Beads must be strung on the fishing line with a needle, alternating 2 small and 1 large. Then the resulting blank should be tried on your wrist and cut off the excess fishing line. At the final stage, you should fix the lock on the fishing line, and now the jewelry, made by yourself, is ready.

Braided Bead Bracelet

Which of us in childhood was not fond of weaving? It's time to remember these skills and weave a bead bracelet. In order to weave an elegant bracelet, you will need a special machine. However, you can make it yourself by scoring cloves on a plank from two sides.

So let's get started. To weave a bracelet, we need:

• Threads.
• Needle.
• Clasp.
• Beads.

The bracelet weaving technique is as follows:

1. The machine must be pulled in 5-6 rows.
2. 5-6 beads should be strung on a thread with a needle and weaved them into threads on the machine, prying them from above, then from below.
3. Thus, the entire bracelet should be woven.
4. At the very end of the bracelet, loop fasteners should be formed.
5. On the received loops fasten a fastener.

By the way, the bracelet can be both plain and colored, patterned. To make a color bracelet, you should alternate beads of different colors, according to a pre-compiled scheme.

In such a simple way, you can make any jewelry that can later be worn by yourself or presented as a gift to relatives or friends.
