DIY Hex Nut Bracelet

DIY component than a hex nuts

We’re nuts for nuts. Is there a more versatile and inexpensive DIY component than a hex nut from the hardware store? You can imagine our excitement when we first discovered . Honestly, nuts braided into jewelry is genius! With a few items that we always seem to have lying around, we tackled the technique and made our own spine-like braided hex nut wrap bracelet.

This bracelet has been inspired by this really wonderful “Braided Hex-nut Bracelet” tutorial which I pinned on a while back.

Two things I absolutely love about this project are:

1) It’s cheap as chips: I already had string in the cupboard and the brass hexnuts were 3p each from the hardware shop.

2) It’s my kind of jewellery: I’m not really a girly girl !

The bracelet I made is a bit different to the ‘braided hex-nut bracelet’ and uses macrame instead, which is great, because I promised some tutorials a while back and felt a bit bad that I hadn’t written any yet!
