Tie-dye Colourful Paracord Bracelet
An easy to make Paracord bracelet. Perfect as a little bithday gift or as any other present. Easily made in less than 10 minutes.
Material
You need:
- 1.4m of tie-dye Paracord III (Type 550)
- 1.4m of black Paracord III (Type 550)
- A black buckle (3/8'')
- Something to melt the Paracord with (e. g. a lighter)
Melting the Ends
As the first step, melt one end of each Paracord rope. On the other side, you melt them and quickly put them together, so they're firmly attached. (This MAY be a bit tricky, but just try a few times!)
Attaching the Paracord to the Buckle
In the next step, the Paracord gets attached to the buckle. First, open the buckle. Than thread the Paracord through the gap in the buckle as it is shown in the images. The two cords in the middle should be as long as your wrist circumference + 1 cm.
Start Tying
Put the right cord (black) underneath the two middle cords to the left side and over the colourful cord. Now take the colourful cord and move it over the two cords in the middle and in the hole created. Pull it tight at the end.
Repeating
Now repeat it on the other side. Black starts again, just the sides are upside-down. Pull it tight again and do it over and over again, until you are at the very end of the two ropes. It should look like the bracelet in the 3rd image.
Cutting and Melting the Paracords Again
Cut the ends 3mm long. Than melt and press them when they cooled down, so they are very close to the other cords.
Done!
Now your bracelet is done! You can turn it if you want and use it as jewellery.
