This pretty cuff bracelet reminds me of stained glass lamp shades made by the famous artist Tiffany. People who sew all have a bunch of safety pins in a drawer right? Well that’s all you’ll need to make this piece. And some beads and stretchy cord of course. Click “cuff” in credits below to see how it’s put together.
Safety pins, beads, stretchy cord

Thanks for your comment and encouragement. I heard from a couple of people who made these bracelets years ago. I never saw them before. Or maybe I did and it’s been tucked away in the back of my brain for years! I agree, this would be an easy project for little girls. Good luck creating your gifts! Christmas will be here before we know it!

The thing I liked about this project is when you first think it’s made from safety pins, you expect it to look cheesy. But I agree with you. I think it’s classy. I appreciate your comment.

It was fun trying to add the beads without creating a specific pattern. I wanted the colors to be random so it took some thought.
