Tangled With Bangles.....

We all love to accessorize our clothing by simple yet eye catching stuff. Bangles and bracelets have become so revoluionaized that today I thought of presenting some of the articles I found on fabric wrapped bracelets and bangles. Try them at home and I'm pretty sure you'll find them interesting and useful.
It's not hard once you put your mind on it. You can use left over fabric and they are quickly made, using inexpensive bangle bracelets and two narrow strips of fabric. The strips are torn adding texture to the bracelet. You may want to make a set of bracelets, reversing the order in which the strips are wrapped or combining different fabrics.

For this you may need,
plastic or wooden bangle bracelets
fabric scraps of your choice
fabric glue
How to make???
First, tear strips of fabrics into thin and long scraps. Width should be at least 2.5cm. Take the bangle of your choice (bangles come in different sizes) and glue wrong side of one end of the fabric scrap to the inside of the bracelet, positioning fabric at an angle.
Wrap fabric around bracelet, angling fabric and overlapping edges; trim excess fabric and glue end to inside of bracelet.
Simple isn't it? All you have to make sure is that you glue the fabrics tight enough and dry them until fit. You can add two or three layers of fabric and you can use different colours and different materials of fabric. You can use threads instead of fabric or how about cords?
 You can decorate these bangles with stones and sequins and add glamour to them. Or else you can simply apply fabric paint on them for more colours.
Here are some of the fascinating fabric bangles, you can get an idea from these.......
