A while
back i decided to try to reuse as much of 4 old jeans as possible. So far they
have been transformed into bowls, owls, a cover for an old chair and fridgemagnets.
Now the time has come to do something with the seams. First I thought about making coasters. I have seen some very nice coiled ones on the net and got very inspired, but then I started thinking about my much too large collection of beads and decided to make bracelets instead.
I sewed on the beads and added a snap closure and then had a new bracelet easy as that… not really… sewing on the beads was really time consuming.
But I like the end result and they are really comfortable to wear.
I'm going to make these the next time my daughter comes over for a craft day. Thanks for sharing them with us!!

I think that your blue jean bracelets are very cute and clever! I save old pieces of blue jeans, then never do anything with them. hahaha
