DIY, NEON PINK BRAIDED HEX NUT BRACELET


Since I am TOTALLY crazy in LOVE with this HexNutBracelet I decided to make it and it result to be very very simple. 
You'll need: 
- 3 yard pieces (the yard I chose was pretty thin so for the bracelet to look thicker I cut 9 pieces and get them together in groups of 3)
- 18 small brass hex nuts
- a bit of dexterity!



-Cut the yard (as I explained before I cut more pieces for the bracelet to be thicker, cut as many as you want for your bracelet to be as thick as you want)


- And get them together in groups of 3. So that you can braid them.


- Gather the 3 pieces of yard and tie a knot at the top, leaving about 2 inches of slack. Start braiding. At about an inch of the way down, you’ll begin braiding in the nuts. Before you braid the far left strand over the middle strand, thread on a nut, push it against the base of the braid, and crossover. 



- Repeat the steps, by threading the rest of the nuts to the outer pieces of twine before they are crossed over. Thread, cross, thread, cross. 




- Finish the bracelet with another inch of braided twine and a knot.



- The bracelet should wrap around your wrist at least two or three times. Trim it to your liking.



WHAT DO YOU THINK??!! YOU SHOULD TRY IT I LOVE IT!!
