DIY Gift Ideas #4: Bordered Heart Bracelet | Lifeasapetite

Boo!

I hope you've all had a fantastic weekend :) I haven't posted or done anything DIY/Crafty for a very long time, so as I have a little time until my next exam I thought I'd share with you all long overdue DIY tutorial on how to make the Bordered Heart Bracelet. 

There are so many tutorials online on how to make the plain basic heart tutorial, like the yellow and white one shown above, but I've never been able to find a tutorial for the bordered version. I'm pretty sure there is one out there but I just haven't been able to find it. So I thought I'd do a tutorial of my own ;p 

I hope these photos are comprehensible/easy to follow. If not do let me know and I'll try to explain it again :) I'm extremely sorry if this is too easy but I know when I follow tutorials I sometimes struggle to understand how to get from A to B, so hopefully these steps will be helpful!

Anyway I hope you enjoy this tutorial:) What are your favourite DIY/crafty things to make?

Have a great week everyone! Take care and speak soon!
