These soft, comfortable wrap bracelets are my very favorite kind of wrist jewelry to wear.
They’re quick and fun to make, and there’s no limit to the colors and designs you can use!
Just for fun in this tutorial, I’ve created four of these multi wrap bracelets – representing the four seasons of the year.
Spring:
Summer:
Autumn:
Winter:
Supplies:
- Small to medium size pendant or charm.
I particularly like polymer clay pendants for these bracelets, but you can use pretty much any kind of pendant or charm you like. - Large jump ring.
I use 15mm size. - Chain nose & flat nose pliers – to open and close your jump rings.
- Narrow stretchy headbands. I use 3 or 4 per bracelet.
I got mine at the local dollar store – they have a huge display of these headbands in every color imaginable.
In the store, wrap one of the headbands around your wrist twice, to make sure it fits comfortably without being a tight tourniquet around your wrist! The size of these headbands tend to vary a bit, so keep looking till you find ones that are a good fit for your wrist when doubled.
If a headband is too tight, you can often stretch it out a bit to make it fit your wrist better.
Usually there are anywhere from 6 to 12 headbands per package:
How to Make an
Easy Multi Wrap Bracelet:
All four bracelets are created with the same steps.
So I’ll use words and photos to describe the steps for the first bracelet (Spring).
Then I’ll just show the step-by-step photos for the remaining three bracelets (Summer, Autumn, and Winter).
If you’re new to using jump rings, see my quick tip, How to Open and Close a Jump Ring.
Spring Multi Wrap Bracelet
For each bracelet, I like to use 3 or 4 narrow stretchy headbands.
I choose headbands that either coordinate or contrast with the pendant:
Use your flat nose and chain nose pliers to twist open your jump ring, and thread the jump ring onto your pendant:
Place each of your narrow stretchy headbands into the open jump ring.
Then use your flat nose and chain nose pliers to twist the jump ring shut again:
To wear your stretchy wrap bracelet, simply wrap it around your wrist twice:
. . . with the pendant dangling over the back of your hand:
Your finished wrap bracelet should look something like this:
Summer Multi Wrap Bracelet
Autumn Multi Wrap Bracelet
