Steps (8 steps, 10 minutes)

  1. 1

    Start by measuring twice around your wrist.

  2. 2

    Take that measurement and cut out a piece of leather with that length plus a 3 inch width.

  3. 3

    Next fold your piece of leather in half and curve out the ends.

  4. 4

    Keeping your cuff folded in half (and you may want to pin it down if you aren't a steady hand) cut slits from the middle up to about 2 inches from the end.

  5. 5

    When you are finished cutting your slits it should look like this!

  6. 6

    Now is the fun creative part! You can spray paint your cuff a fun metalic color, studd it, cover it in rhinestones whatever. I chose to sew small garnet colored beads on mine.

  7. 7

    To fasten yours closed you will want to pick out a fun button that you can easily put through a slip loop and sew that onto one end.

  8. 8

    To make your little slip loop like mine take a super thin needle and thread and thread beads onto it. Bring your thread to the back side of your cuff and tie it off and youa re done!
