Bangle Bracelets Made from PET Bottles - modern, colorful, and casual!

Here I’ll show you a special method for making stylish bangles quickly and easily
with very few materials.

All you need is an old PET bottle, some yarn and, for a
touch of glamour, a piece of rhinestone chain - and in no time you’ll have a truly
unique piece of jewelry. Also great as a gift or small present.

You can combine the bangles however you like. Whether it’s just one
bangle (perhaps a bit wider), two, or several bangles worn
at the same time - they always catch the eye. Depending on which
colors you use, these pieces can look either elegant (e.g.
in black and white) or cheerfully summery (colorful in pastel shades), etc.
