Tutorials how to make simple shell bracelets.
Here is a selection of easy DIY shell bracelet ideas so that you can bring the beach with you wherever you go. To make a sea shell bracelet you can either use an
Empty Charm Bracelet (Amazon) and jump rings, or some sort of twine or cord. You can try finding shells that already have holes in them, or you can drill or poke holes in shells, as well as use strong glue.
The seashells used to make this shell bracelet were thin enough to make the holes with an
Awl Hole Punch (Amazon) that you gently rotate. You can attach as many shells to your bracelet as you please. One jump ring for each shell, plus a closure for the bracelet. In this example a lobster-claw was used.
No holes needed for this method. The shell bracelet was crafted with E6000 strong glue. Instead of a charm bracelet you could pick up some vintage chains at an antique store or thrift store.
Here is an example of a shell bracelet that has been crocheted with nylon cord. Broken shell pieces make pretty bracelets too, and you might find many that have holes in them already.
