I absolutely love bracelets and wear them allot. Girl can’t have too many bracelets, especially in different colours and different textures.  And the best thing is that you can buy a very cheap bangle and transform it to a gorgeous bracelet. Or make them from scratch. There are many techniques to do so, and today I’ll focus on DIY bracelets made from fabric. So, take out your scraps of fabrics and get started.
