How to do it
1. Cut the leather strap to the desired length. NB: Add another 1-2cm as an overlay to fasten the bracelet.
2. Use hole punch pliers to make a hole at each end of the leather strap for the metal stud.
3. Insert the two-part metal stud in one end of the leather strap. (The hole at the other end is used for fastening the bracelet onto the metal stud).
4. Make small holes in the middle of the strap along the entire length of the leather strap. Use 1mm macramé cord for sewing through the holes in the bracelet, making decorative stitching according to your taste.
5. You may decorate the bracelet by sewing on buttons or beads according to your taste.
6. Secure the decorative macramé cord with knots on the back of the leather strap bracelet. Apply a small blob of Clear Multi Glue gel onto the knots.
