Patriotic ribbon bracelets!!

Hello everyone. I hope you are having a great Thursday! It's very rainy and gloomy here. I made some of these patriotic ribbon bracelets last year in a different patriotic ribbon and gave them out at the 4Th Of July cookout. My daughter wanted me to make more of them for this year. I will be giving these out at this years cook out. I made them in size 7 in and 8 in and some small bracelets for the little children. This photo is my daughter showing off the bracelets on her wrist.


I used the i rock tool to set the silver gems on the red, white and blue bracelets. I've been using that tool a lot lately. Great tool to have for my projects:)


Here the Supplies and tool I used to make these bracelets. I purchased the eyelet and snap plier tool at Micheal's and ribbon too. These tool is a great tool to own. I used it on all my crafts. I love it:) The snaps I purchased at Walmart. I cut pieces of ribbon 7 in and 8 in long to make bracelets. I made some smaller for the children too. I applied clear finger nail polish to the ends of cut ribbons to keep it from fraying apart. All that matters it keeps it from fraying apart. Set the snaps in ribbon where you want them and you have a snap bracelet. This tool is easy to use. These make great gifts to give out and they can be made in any color ribbon you like;) I like these ribbon bracelets better then the plastic ones they are selling in the stores. I hope you all like this idea and you make some too:) Let me know what you think about it!

  2. This is such a GREAT idea!! My daughter (18 years old) loves to tie ribbons on her wrist for all sorts of occasions -- I think she'd love this idea even more!! Might just have to break out the grommet tool and try this out... I LOVE that you are decorating the people at your parties too!! :)
