Beady bracelet

Looking for my current giveaway?  Click Here


This summer I shared that my SIL had shared beads with me.  I posted a necklace I made out of some of them and mentioned that I had no idea what to do with the wooden beads that she sent.  I know that wooden beads seem a little more popular lately (not really sure why), but I hadn't seen any ideas that would work with the beads I had. 

Then I saw these bracelets from I Am Momma--Hear Me Roar and I knew my beads would be perfect for a bracelet just like them!  My craft store didn't have fun colors of leather so I went with dark brown since I wear a lot of brown.  I know this makes my bracelet a little bland, but I will keep looking for find more colorful leather colors.

 I could make a tutorial, but Cheri did such a good job I will let you go to her blog for step by step directions.  Here are a few pictures of my finished product.
