Button Stretch Bracelet Materials

The ombre buttons come in two sizes. For this bracelet, you will only need the smaller size buttons. Measure your wrist, double that measurement and add 6 to 8 inches. Pre-stretch the cord.

Next, lay out the buttons in an ombre pattern using an even number of buttons in each color.

Fold the stretch cord in half. Select the first two buttons, place them flat sides together and align the holes. Thread the stretch cord ends through the button holes and slide to the end of the cord. Continue adding the buttons until you reach about 2 inches from the ends of the cords. Wrap around your wrist to check for fit and add or remove buttons as necessary.

Button Stretch Bracelet Step 1

Slide the buttons towards the open end to expose the loop and the starting end. Feed one open end through the loop. Pull tightly to form a circle. Tie the ends into 3 or 4 knots. Add a drop of glue to secure and trim the ends of the stretch cord.
