If you want to give you wrist little love then you will love to wear this diy braided rhinestone bracelet and it is obvious that you are going to get everyone’s attention because of its unique braided design. To make this cute bracelet, you are going to need a rhinestone bracelet either from your existing collection or you can buy one new if you are going to make it as a permanent investment to your jewelry section. Next, you are going to need a bunch of silk thread, embroidery needle and 4-6 inches of silver thread or bullion.
Now start with gathering 12 inch bunch of silk thread that has to be tied with a knot around the last inch. Use the silver bullion and take 2 inch piece of it to create a thin metal wire. Measure an amount of 10-12 mm and wrap the wire around the bunch of silk thread. Cut the wire and attach the thread to a flat surface by securing it with a piece of tape. Now start making a braid on this thread and continue it until it reaches the end of the bracelet. Now you have to do the same process as you have done for the beginning of the braid. Wrap the end with the silver wire and trim the ends. Now you have to sew the braid to your rhinestone bracelet and for that you will have to put a silk thread into the needle and start by threading it through the end of the braid. Now you have to sew the braid to the bracelet and for that you will have to sew it through the middle of the braid to each rhinestone settings.
You have to do it very carefully because if you snag any thread then you might need to start it from the beginning again. Make sure that you are pulling the thread tightly each time so that it can get locked properly. Continue threading until you reach the last part of the braid and then secure the thread by wrapping it on the last rhinestones settings for a few times. Get the thread out from the back of the wired section and trim it. Your diy braided rhinestone bracelet is ready! Isn’t it just gorgeous? Pile it on and see how pretty it looks on your wrist! You can choose multiple colors for the silk threads and match the colors with your outfit with which you are going to wear this bracelet. Wear it on and get the best compliments out there!
