Does green eyeshadow go with blue eyes? This tutorial shows it!
Regardless of whether you have green, blue or brown eyes, green eyeshadow in combination with brown is the best choice for evening make-up. We show you a green smokey eye look that is perfect for a party evening or other special occasions! The look is completed with a nude lipstick
First, take the colorful ribbons and put them together in a bundle. The number of loops may vary depending on the desired thickness of the bracelet. Then thread the beads. Wrap one end of the bracelet tightly with some copper wire. Put on the bead caps. Finally, attach the clasp. Protruding bands are cut off.
Make bead chips bangle
To create a different type of bracelet, you can use bent wire. You can create beautiful and elegant bracelets with different beads or pendants. We used pearl chips in turquoise and white.
Materials and DIY instructions
Materials required:
Bent wire
Jewelry wire in different colors
Pearl chips
Wire cutters
First cut 5 appropriately sized bangles from the bent wire. Take the jewelry wire in a color of your choice and wrap it around the bangle a few times. Then thread a bead and wrap the jewelry wire tightly around it a few more times. Repeat the same process by changing the color of the jewelry wire and beads. Finally, tie the wire ends together.
Make a pretty bracelet with buttons
If you want to make a cute and colorful bracelet, you don't necessarily have to go to the craft store right away. Various objects from everyday life can be used for other purposes and thus for making arm jewelry. To realize our next craft idea, for example, you will need some colorful buttons.
Materials required:
Buttons with 4 holes
Waxed cotton cord
The end of the barrel
Lobster claw clasp
Lock ring
Scissors
Jewelry pliers
Measure the circumference of your wrist and add another 6-8 centimeters. Cut the waxed cotton cord. Then thread the colorful buttons one after the other to create a pretty color pattern. Thread the string vertically through the first two holes of the button and then through the other two again as shown in the picture. Repeat this process with the other buttons too. Then attach the thread ends as well as the lock ring and the lobster claw clasp.
Make your own braided pearl bracelet
Our final suggestion is for a great braided bracelet with tiny beads and a practical button closure.
Necessary materials:
Waxed cotton cord, 114 cm
Small beads, 60 pieces
Small button with 2 holes
Scissors
Lineal
First, cut a 66 cm long and a 48 cm long piece of waxed cotton cord. Fold the longer piece through the middle. One end of the shorter cord is placed next to the longer one and held between the fingers. Now wrap the single cord around the double cord to create an approximately 1 cm loop. Tie the string. Finally, braid the resulting strands into a braid. Thread a bead every 1-2 cm and continue braiding. Finally, thread a button and tie it.
