Blog Swap with Blue Cricket Design

We are so excited to have Becca from Blue Cricket Design on our blog today.
We love her blog style and think she is AMAZING!
Enjoy!


Hi Sister's Stuff fans! I'm invading today from over at Blue Cricket Design. I'm Becca and if you don't mind I'm going to pretend I'm a third sister to Whitney and Alish! Who wouldn't want to be part of their fun family!

I'm excited to share a fun, easy and affordable project with you today! First you'll need to raid your little girls dress up jewelery! Quick! She's not looking!!! This fun scrap fabric bracelet project uses plastic bangle bracelets and scrap fabric and buttons (optional!). Don't laugh but the bracelets I'm using came from a Barbi Happy Meal from McDonald's! FINALLY a Happy Meal toy I didn't want to throw away right away!!!


You will need: Bracelets, a glue gun and glue sticks, fabric and
buttons if you'd like to adorn your bracelets!

First cut long strips approximately 1/2 " x 12" or longer!

Starting on the inside of our bracelet we are going to glue on an end of our fabric strip!

Wrap your fabric around the bracelet pulling it tight!
Completely cover the bracelet and finish it by gluing the end of your fabric strip on the inside!



Make a set to wear together! Lightweight, interchangeable and so comfortable! Now I only wish I let me kids at McDonald's more often!!!


I added some vintage buttons to this one for a little more detail!
I hope you've enjoyed this project! There is plenty more to see and enjoy over on my creative blog Blue Cricket Design! You'll find my collection of craft projects, recipes, sewing how to's, Photshop tips, GIVEAWAYS and more!

Be sure to check back often and mark your calendars! I am hosting an exciting "Giveaway A Day" event November 2nd -6th! Each day of that week I will be having a different Sponsor hosting their own amazing giveaway!

So come and grab my button and help spread the word!! It's sure to be a hit!


Thanks Sisters for having me over to play on your amazing blog!!!
