DIY Steps for Embellished Paracord Bracelet
1
Begin by gathering all the supplies required to make an Embellished Paracord Bracelet. You may want to select and organize the jewels in a pattern that pairs well with your colored paracord.
2
Then measure your wrist by taking one end of the 10 ft. paracord and wrapping it loosely around your wrist 4x. For example, if your wrist is 6 inches, then you would need 24 inches of paracord. Take your scissors and cut your 4x measured wrist length from the 10 ft of paracord. You should now have two pieces of paracord.
3
Next take the shorter paracord and tie the ends together with a knot as shown in the picture. Place the longer paracord centered and directly behind the knotted paracord.
4
Now move the left rope across the two middle ropes and under the right rope. Take the right rope under the left and middle ropes and up through the left side of the loop.
5
Slowly pull and tighten the left and right ropes and come to a knot. The knot should leave room for an approximate one-inch loop at the top of the bracelet. Then move the right rope over the two middle ropes and under the left rope.
6
Take the left rope under the right rope and two middle ropes and up through the right side of the loop. Slowly pull and tighten the left and right ropes and come to a knot.
7
Continue steps 4 through 6 until you reach the end of the paracord bracelet. Place the bracelet around your wrist to see how it fits. If you need to adjust the length of your paracord bracelet, be sure to do it now by moving the knot up or down. Then trim the four ends of the bracelet with scissors.
8
To prevent the paracord from unraveling, take a lighter and burn the ends of the paracord to seal it. Now apply E6000 to the backside of the jewels and press each jewel firmly onto the paracord bracelet. Allow the jewels to dry overnight before wearing or gifting your embellished paracord bracelet.

There are so many fun and creative ways to decorate your paracord bracelet. Be sure to share your DIY Embellish Paracord Bracelet design by tagging @Soverynn and #Soverynn.
