  • Phew, that was close!

  • So today we are making this super cute bracelets.

  • I made two of them since I like to wear them together.

  • They are so easy to make and they are seriously my favorite bracelets to wear right now.

  • So I hope you'll try to make them yourself and here's how to do that.

  • In this tutorial you'll learn how to easily create these charming bracelets.

  • They are adjustable in size, which makes it easy to put them on and of your wrist.

  • Here's what you need to make them: colorful nylon cord, I went for a lilac and a hot pink;

  • any kind of connector charm, I am using these beautiful gold hearts; some small beads, which

  • is optional and for the tools: scissors, embroidery needle, a super glue or a lighter.

  • You will need 5 pieces of knotting cord to make one bracelet.

  • Cut 2 pieces of the cord first.

  • These must be 15 inches or 40 centimeters long.

  • Fold the first cord in half and pull the loop through the heart.

  • Then fold it over the heart and pull the rest of the cord through the loop.

  • Repeat the same step on the other side of the heart.

  • As you can see you can use any connector charm you want as long as it has a hole.

  • Place the bracelet on the flat surface and fix the two strands with a piece of a tape

  • or a heavy object like me.

  • Cut another piece of a cord, this time a bit longer -- approximately twenty inches should

  • be enough.

  • Square the first string over the stationary one.

  • Now it's time to start knotting with a basic square knot technique.

  • Take the marked side of the cord, I started with the one on the left side of your screen

  • - go under the middle strands and over the one on the right.

  • This will create a loop on the left side.

  • Take the cord on the right and pull it through the loop.

  • Pull tightly and slide the knot up to the charm.

  • Next, switch to the opposite side.

  • Since I started with the cord on the left side of the screen before, I am now first

  • taking the string on the right side.

  • Again, go under the middle strings and over the strings on the left side of the screen.

  • Pull the left string through the loop and pull both cords tightly.

  • And you just need to repeat these steps until you end up with a beautiful strap.

  • Again, take the string on the left side.

  • Go under the middle cords and over the cord on the right side.

  • Pull the right cord into the loop on the left and tighten the strands.

  • Take the right string and again navigate under the middle strings and over the left string.

  • Switch to the left string, go through the loop and tighten the knot.

  • Let's watch this vital step one more time, so that it prints into our memory.

  • I like DIY bracelet projects especially during winter.

  • Here in Norway days are becoming very short already and it usually rains.

  • So I like spending my free time creating some cute accessories.

  • I have several easy bracelet tutorials in mind so definitely stay tuned if you are a

  • bracelet lover.

  • Back to our bracelet.. continue knotting until the strap is long enough to cover a bit less

  • than half of your wrist.

  • Turn the bracelet over.

  • To make a neat ending to the strap we now need to work with these two side cords.

  • Thread the first cord onto an embroidery needle, which is basically just a normal needle but

  • bigger.

  • Then sew up the center of two to three knots along the backside of the bracelet like me.

  • Repeat this step on the other side.

  • This will assure that our knots are well secured and that the bracelet will last us many years.

  • So this is what you need to have at the end.

  • Cut the excess cords that you've just sewed up and melt the tips with a lighter for the

  • extra hold.

  • Now we need to repeat the same process on the other side of the bracelet.

  • Here I am starting on the left.

  • Go under the middle stings and over the strings on the right.

  • As you see a loop is formed on the left, so take the right string and go through that

  • loop.

  • Pull both side strings to tighten the knot.

  • Since we started on the left before, we must start on the right this time.

  • Go under the middle strings and over the left string.

  • Take the left one and go through the loop.

  • Tighten and repeat these steps -- left, right, left, right until your bracelet strap is long

  • enough.

  • Here you can see closely why this knot is called the square knot.

  • You get a square pattern with the strings when you're knotting.

  • Finnish off the strap the same way as the first one.

  • Trim the excess cords that were sewed up the center and melt the tips.

  • Be careful that you don't melt the rest of the bracelet, the flame must only slightly

  • touch the two tips.

  • To make a sliding closure, shape the bracelet into a circle so that the middle strands overlap.

  • Make two loose knots like me to temporarily tie the cords together.

  • Fix the bracelet so that it stays in place with some object.

  • Take ten inches of a cord.

  • Now start knotting exactly the same way as before with the bracelet straps.

  • As I am starting on the left, I need to go under the four middle strings, and then over

  • the right string.

  • With the right string I am going through the loop on the left and I finish the knot by

  • tightening.

  • Next, start on the right side, go under the middle cords and over the left one.

  • Take the left cord, go through the loop on the right and tighten.

  • Repeat this a few times until your clasp is about half an inch or a centimeter long.

  • Make the same ending to the clasp as you did before with the straps.

  • I love this sliding closure for my bracelets as it makes it really easy to put the bracelet

  • on and of my wrists without damaging it.

  • Cut the excess cord and melt the tips.

  • Untie the temporary knots.

  • See how simple it is to make such an adorable bracelet.

  • It really doesn't take much time either, one hour or maybe two if you're new to making

  • bracelets.

  • You can just finish your bracelet by making little knots on each of the 4 cords like this

  • or you can thread on a bead first for a lovely detail.

  • I decided to use these little golden beads.

  • In any case make sure to leave enough space so that you'll be able to put the bracelet

  • on and off your wrist.

  • Just make four final knots, trim the excess cord and we are finished.

  • This bracelet will spice up any outfit as it looks so casual and elegant at the same

  • time.

  • I made another one using a hot pink cord as well.

  • They look absolutely adorable layered with other bracelets and nonetheless these make

  • a perfect gift for your friends and loved ones.

  • And that's how easy this was.

  • Pretty cool, right?

  • Since they look so adorable I am thinking of making more of them with different colors

  • of string.

  • Please send me a picture on Twitter, Instagram or Facebook if you try to make them yourself

  • because I love seeing your recreations.

  • Thank you for watching and bye, bye until next time!

Phew, that was close!
