A bracelet is a loop of material, such as a strap or chain, that is intended to be worn around the wrist or forearm, without being attached to clothing. Sometimes, it is a combination of joined or interlocking loops. Frequently, it is made in a decorative style, and is worn as jewellery. It may have a supportive function, such as holding a wristwatch or other items of jewellery such as religious symbols or charms. Medical and identity information is marked on some bracelets, such as allergy bracelets, hospital patient-identification tags, and bracelet tags for newborn babies. If a bracelet is a single, inflexible loop, it is often called a bangle. When it is worn around the ankle it is called an ankle bracelet or anklet. A boot bracelet is used to decorate boots. Colloquially, handcuffs are sometimes called bracelets. Bracelets can be manufactured from metal, leather, cloth, plastic or other materials and sometimes contain jewels, rocks, wood, shells, crystals, metal or plastic hoops, pearls and many more materials.

You actually can make a bracelet by your own. It is easy if you have the material. For example if you want to make a bangle bracelet you need :
TOOLS & MATERIALS:
Sculpey Soufflé Oven-Bake Clay
Sculpey essential tool kit

step 1
Using the super slicer tool cut about a half inch thick slice of clay in the color you want for the base of your bracelet.

step 2
Soften the clay by kneading it with your hands. The clay starts out pretty hard but softens right away. It’s super easy to work with.
Roll it out on a clean flat surface until it is long enough to fit around your wrist like a bangle.

step 3
Cut thinner slices from 3 other colors.
Knead and roll them as you did in step 2, but keep rolling until they are thinner and longer.

step 4
Line them up together and wrap them around the bracelet base you made with your first. color.
When you are finished press the ends together to hold them.

step 5
When your bracelet is finished you will cook it in the oven

It says to heat the oven to 275 degrees and cook them for 30 minutes per ¼” of thickness.
The bracelets I made were thicker than ¼” so I cooked them for 30 minutes, checked them and flipped them over and cooked them for another 30 minutes.
Be careful when you take them out of the oven as they will be very hot. Let them cool before trying to wear them.
You can also wrap your exterior colors in the opposite direction to create more of a crossing pattern.
When the clay has been cooked and is all done it has a really nice suede finish, it’s a perfect finish for these bracelets.

Stack two or three bracelet bases and add little balls of contrasting colors to make a different bracelet.
These are really fun and simple to make. Be sure to make a few and stack them, they look really great together.

It is very easy making an awesome bracelet. Please find out other kinds of bracelet ideas in this app.
