Chain Braid Bracelet DIY

Ok it is official-I'm in love with making jewlery :D After yesterday's chain piece we now have another one with a chain-this time it is braided though!
Materials
50cm long chain
50cm long piece of wool
4x 50cm of different colored threads
2 small metal loops
jewelery fastener
Step 1
Make a knot into your wool and your threads to keep them together. Then, on the long side of the knot, pull the threads and the wool through the last loop of the chain and make another knot. The easiest way to do the braiding is then pinning the whole thing onto your knee with a safety clip and then start braiding!
When the bracelet is long enough to fit about 3 times around your wrist pull the thread and the wool through the last loop of the chain again and make another knot. Then put one of the metal loops on the last piece of the chain and attach the fastener. Add the other loop on the other end of the chain.
And there you have it! Wasn't it quick and easy?-have fun wearing it!

And I bet it looks awesome stacked with all your other bracelets!
