/MAKE IT

It's friday and, as usual, time for a DIY project!
This week learn how to make braided jewelry: start from stripes of textile (i bought mine already prepared, but you can make yours in an easy way, cutting bands of an old t-shirt, like this) and braid them!
I made two different bracelets (with three and five strand braids) and a necklace, re-using an old chain and twisting the fabric around it! Choose the one you prefer and try to make it, following the instructions from the images below.
