Hello everybody! In today's craft we are going to make a bracelet with corks, it looks very nice and is a perfect way to recycle the corks of wine bottles and remains of jewelry that we may have or give another life to some bracelets that we no longer use.
Do you want to see how to do it?
Materials that we will need to make our bracelet with corks
- Wine bottle corks
- Pendants and balls to make jewelry, in my case I have taken remains that I had at home.
- Two rigid thin bracelets or two pieces of wire for jewelry or crafts (you can find them in different colors)
- Hot glue gun or a strong glue of your choice
- Needle and thread
- Cutter
Hands on craft
You can see this complete craft in the following video:
- The first is cut the corks into rounds of about 5 mm approximately, for this we will use the cutter and we will turn the cork.
- Once the corks and other elements that we are going to use are prepared, we take the rigid bracelets and calculate how many corks they can fit. In my case it will be nine circles.
- We make the design for our bracelet, I am going to leave three circles with nothing to decorate them, I am going to use another three that are the corners of the corks that have a moon as decoration and the other three corks I am going to decorate with pendants and beads.
- We separate the bracelets and put a piece of hot silicone to stick one of the corks with the moon, then we glue the other moon corks at the same distance from each other.
- For the corks decorated with beads we are going to pass the needle with the thread from one side of the cork to the other, we insert a bead ball and the pendant into the needle, we pass the needle again through the ball and go back through the cork to where we had started and make a knot. We cover this knot with a ball just like the one we used on the other side. You can also go around the perimeter of the cork with the thread to give it more color. We do my thing with the other three corks.
- Once we have We are sticking all the pieces on the bracelets or wires, inserting some colored ball that we will stick between cork and cork.
And ready!
I hope you cheer up and do this craft.
