Wright this down | DIY Leather tube bracelet

I’ve had so much fun making bracelets the past month or so which I have yet to share until now.

You should know about this blog, Honestly… WTF. No Seriously, I mean honestly… Never mind. Click HERE!  I made the tube bracelets above from the instructions on Honestly WTF. If you want to know how to make them yourself, click HERE to see the list of what you’ll need and step by step instructions on how to Do It Yourself!
 
I have owned this J. Crew chain necklace captured above for some time and really never wear it so I thought i’d give it a new life by making it into something that I would wear more often. I cut all of the chains shorter, measuring each peice to wrap around my wrist at the same length as well as removing some strands entirely. I then added a couple of jump rings and badabing… bracelet. 
 
See what I did with the leftover chain later this week.

It was one of those Saturdays where I only left the house once, just to succulent shop. Terrariums, a transparent globe of goodness. Succulents, the friendliest and easiest plants to grow. 

What you need: Charcoal for water drainage (place at bottom of terrarium or planting dish)
Succulent potting soil goes in next
Exotic rocks to lay on top of soil for decoration
Moss for decoration
Various succulent for planting

Wright this down | Photo medium transfer

I found this wood scrap in a pile of remodel debris in the backyard of my house. Beveled edges and all; I have no idea where this came from but I won. 

What you need:
Wood
Medium Gel
Photo printed on paper
Modge Podge or I use Envirotex

Transfer photo from paper to just about anything.
Here are the steps… 
Spread medium gel on surface you want photo transferred on to.
Let dry 24 hours.

Once dry, wet a sponge and soak the paper. 
Scrub the paper until it’s completely removed. 
For the gloss coating over the top of subject I used Envirotex. 
follow instructions on bottle for this product.
Or, use Mod Podge by spreading layers over the top and letting it dry.
You can find these brackets at any grocery store or craft store.

ABOUT THE BLOG

Wright for Michele is a Portland based lifestyle blog devoted to cultivating stylish, relatable and creative content. It also serves as a personal time capsule of my family’s journeys, giggling and stumbling a bit, through it all.

I started "Wright for Michele" back in 2010 as a creative outlet and to share the things I love (basically the exact same reason the rest of the internet started blogging). Often this blog is about family, sometimes it’s about style, and in general it’s about life and how you (and me) can make every single area in it, better. It’s simple, it’s real (sometimes a little raw and almost always full of grammatical errors), it’s honest and hopefully no matter what it’s a little sweet.
