Create gorgeous bracelets from neckties! All you need to upcycle the swoon-worthy silky fabric of an unused tie into a unique bracelet is needle and thread, scissors, and a button or other closure. My 30-plus page downloadable ebook tutorial gives clear step-by-step instructions illustrated with more than 60 full-color closeup photos to guide you through the entire process. Learn where to find ties (no stealing your husband’s faves!), how to size and sew the bracelet (no advanced skills or tools needed), and finally choose which of 4 closure options works best for your bracelet. With many extra tips about the care and treatment of ties, using a sewing machine if you have one, and more!

Warning - you’ll quickly become addicted to making these bracelets! But don’t worry, once you run out of space on both arms to wear several at once, your friends and family will love to get your handmade gifts!
