Its really simple to make trendy Silk thread bangles customising it to our requirements..the materials are easily available too
Materials required
Silk thread or embrodiery threads
Stone or pearl lace or small designs in plastic that can be stuck
Glue
Plain bangles (special bangles are also available for jewellery making and even old bangles can be used for it)
Start by tying a knot with the thread in the bangle. Roll the thread all over the bangle closely without gaps and put a knot in the end too.
Hold the stone lace over the bangle (it could be in the center or two lines in the corners or any zigzag pattern too) and secure it by rolling gold colour or a contrast colour or same colour thread so that it doesnt move and also gets a grand look.
Glue the ends of the threads so that it is secured. Repeat for other bangles as required. You could make a mix and match of some plain bangles without the stones and some with stones to get a full set. Here is a picture of the plain and finished bangle together.
And here is the pair of bangles ready ...

It looks so easy. I am definitely going to try this.
What kind of glue should I use? I am using silk thread, as it is very silky fevicol or fabricglue doesn't work well. Any clues?
