Mermaid Wrap Bracelet

Chan Luu technique + beachy charms = Light bulb!
Not bad for a first time, eh?

This is my mermaid inspired wrap bracelet. My mom just purchased two Chan Lu bracelets off of hautelook.com and although they are very beautiful, Chan Lu's are not in my post-college budget.

I used 2.0-sized brown greek leather cord, gold beading thread (thicker than regular thread),and blue and bronze 6/0 round beads. When the wrap was done I wore it on my wrist and decided to put charms where they would be seen. Perfection under $20!

**Note** This project did not take me 2 hours. It was done in an unknown amount of time I had free to myself between ya know...life and chaos. I estimated about 2 hours over a 4-day period.
