jcrew diy bracelet tutorial...

hailie and I were browsing crewcuts online for some new spring clothes for her and she spotted this bracelet..she said it was cute and she wanted me to buy it for her... $14.95..hmmm..it just screamed to me a diy though...
so here you go...30 minutes later and $0 dollars she had her bracelet...

I found an old plastic dress up bracelet of hers..and found some fabric scraps that I thought were cute together....
I cut about an inch strip all along the salvaged edge of the yard of fabric I had...
 then just put a dot of hot glue in the inside of the bracelet and started to wrap the bracelet...
There are a million flower tutorials out there, I ended up using the one from Dana at MADE.. it was a no sew one and I just did it without the dowl rod...

 hailie was super  happy with it...
 and mommy might steal it from her occasionally too!
