Fall Bracelet with Shrink plastic



I have another fun project that I made up on the Spellbinders
website this week made from the New Fall Leaves dies, inks,
wire and some clear shrink plastic.  I really had fun doing this one
because i made the whole thing including the wire bracelet.


For this project I bent enough pieces of 20 gauge Beadalon 
wire to go around my wrist and attached them together with
jump rings that I made.  Then I cut out lots and lots of
leaves with the Fall Foliage die S5-120 and used my
embossing gun to shrink the plastic.  (Be sure and punch
a small hole in them before you shrink it because the 
plastic gets really hard after)  Then you can use lots
of inks to color both sides and rub it it good with a towel
and let them dry.  Then all you have to do is attach
them with jump rings and add a few rhinestones if you wish
and a fun closure of some kind to match.  And you could even
make earrings and a necklace to match, wouldn't that be fun!


These are so fun and easy to make and since the holidays
are coming up could you just picture them in cute holiday
shapes with lots of beads or maybe snowflakes?

Thanks so much for stopping in and sorry I haven't had
a post... we just got back from Hawaii and had a
wonderful time so I will share a few pictures in
a couple of days when I get all caught up!

Happy crafting to you!
