These are super easy to make and the only part of the process that is mildly a pain is the final part but it will make sure that nothing unravels. Enjoy! =)

What you need: -Some cheap bangles - Embroidery Floss in your choice of colors. - Threading needle - Scissors, the sharper, the better.
Take one bangle and one embroidery floss and tie a knot on the bangle.
With the skein of floss in your hand, loosely wrap the floss around the bracelet, about 5-6 wraps at a time.
Tighten what you have just wrapped together and up towards the knot.
Keep wrapping and tightening until it starts to look like this.
Do this all the way around until there is no inner bangle showing anymore. At this point create another knot at the end and cut.
Now get as close as you can with the scissor to the end of the loose ends and cut.
Cut off another piece of floss about 5-6 inches and thread it through a needle. Tie a knot at the end of the thread.
Put the needle through right by where the knots were cut previously,
Slowly wrap around all loose strings and imperfections as tightly as you can.
When finished wrapping around the loose ends, put the needle a few times through the bottom side of the bangle so as not to unravel and cut as close as possible so no strings stick out. Now you are done!! =)
