Unique watch straps with your own hands.

Modern women’s watches are presented today in a large assortment. But even this does not guarantee that a woman can have an exclusive accessory. All of them are similar, but it is very simple to change the situation. Here a DIY watch bracelet tutorial will help us. Just take and make a strap for watches with your own hands using beads. The work is not complicated, and the result will impress you with its originality. This is a good reason not to through the old watch away. There is an opportunity to completely refresh the design. If you like what you are reading right now, stick with me and I will tell you how to make a DIY watch bracelet.

When choosing a material for work, it is necessary to pay attention to the color of the watch case or watch dial. For example, a watch with a silver-colored case will not look good with a gold or colored strap. It is better when the beads are chosen in tone. Only some fragments may be different, but not much. This is the main secret that you need to pay attention to while making a DIY watch bracelet.
When the material is prepared, you can get down to work.

Bracelet for a watch made of pearl beads

You can make a bracelet out of pearl beads on an elastic cord. The work is simple, requiring no explanation, but the result will impress you. If you need a simple DIY watch bracelet, this would be a perfect choice.

I took a transparent elastic cord. First, I tied the cord to one side of the watch, then I strung the beads and tied them to the other side of the watch. I dabbed the knots with glue so that they will not come undone when I wear my DIY watch bracelet.

The silver beads on the edges have large holes. The beads covered both the watch lugs and the knots themselves.

Bracelet for a watch with beads and fishing line

Bracelet weaving is carried out on both sides of the clock. First, you need to fix the fishing line on one side of the watch and continue weaving according to the scheme.
I took an ordinary fishing line with a thickness of 1 mm.

The size of the bracelet can be determined as you assemble the DIY watch bracelet.

It is weaved by two pieces on both sides.

Finish each side with a clasp. Everything is simple enough, even a person with no experience can figure it out.

You can drop glue on the knots so that the knots will not come undone when you wear the DIY watch bracelet.

Bracelet for a watch with the Shamballa technique

Products made with this technique are very popular today. There is an opportunity to use it to create a new design for your old watches.
You and I have already studied and made shamballa bracelets in previous lessons. We will use the same knots that we used before.

To make a shamballa bracelet for your watch you will need:
Shamballa weaving cord. I used black waxed cord;
Clock;
Beads;
Scissors
Use cardboard and two paper clips to work with.

Clasp one section of cord with beads. Thread the two cords through the holes on the watch.

Put the watch on top of the cord.

First, weave to one side. Make two knots as shown in the photo.

Move the bead and continue weaving.

Make two knots.

Move the next bead and continue knotting knots.

Thus weave all the beads in both directions.

Cut the ends of the cord. Put the glue on the cord to keep it from untying.

Next, make a weaved lock made of a cord. Thread small beads onto the ends of the cord. Measure out the size you want and cut the cords. Tie knots on the ends.

Take another piece of cord.

Tie the two cords together as shown in the photo.

And keep on weaving.

With the number of loops, you can adjust the size of the DIY watch bracelet.

Then we cut the ends and put the glue on them.
My waxed cord melts from the fire – just like paracord. I melted the ends of the cord the same way I do when making paracord bracelets.
By pulling the small beads in different directions we tighten the bracelet. By pulling the larger beads, we widen the bracelet so that is how you can put the bracelet on the hand.

Shamballa bracelet for watches is ready.
