I don’t do a lot of embroidery, but when I found a massive bag of embroidery threads for $4 at the op shop, I wasn’t going to leave them there!

Some months ago I bought some small 12cm embroidery hoops with the idea of making them into bracelets. I started painting them but sort of lost inspiration.

So they sat in a cupboard all that time, until I thought “aha!” I could wrap them in the embroidery thread and make stripy bangles!

 No mystery with this project, just some fabric glue on the inside of the bangle and start winding thread around. Glue the end down when you want to switch colours, and when you get all the way around.
