What You’ll Need:
- Cotton bracelet
- Scissors
- Clear nail polish
Step 1: Cut the Excess String
Start by cutting any excess string from your cotton bracelet. It’s important to leave just enough length to comfortably wrap the bracelet around your wrist without it being too loose or tight.
Step 2: Apply Clear Nail Polish
Next, take your clear nail polish and apply a small amount to the end of the cotton string. This will prevent fraying and make it easier to close the bracelet.
Step 3: Twist the Ends Together
Once the nail polish has dried, twist the two ends of the cotton bracelet together. Make sure they are tightly twisted to ensure a secure closure.
Step 4: Tie a Knot
After twisting the ends, tie a tight knot to secure the closure. You can double knot it for added strength.
Step 5: Trim Excess String
Using your scissors, carefully trim any excess string from the knot. Be sure not to cut too close to the knot to avoid it coming undone.
Step 6: Seal with Clear Nail Polish
To ensure the knot stays in place, apply another layer of clear nail polish over the knot. This will provide extra security and prevent the knot from unraveling.
Step 7: Let It Dry
Allow the clear nail polish to dry completely before wearing your freshly closed cotton bracelet. This will usually take around 15-20 minutes.
Congratulations! You have successfully closed your cotton bracelet. Now you can show off your stylish accessory without any worries of it falling off. Enjoy!
