The Stripe

Mini-DIY: Spike Bracelet

You already know from this post that I’m into mixed metals in a big way.  Upon seeing this bracelet and this necklace, I set out to make my own little piece of spiky goodness.  The below bracelet is incredibly easy to make… and when you wear it, the only piece of jewelry you’ll need.   It goes with everything.  Below, I paired it with cut-offs and a preppy tee… but it would look equally great with a cocktail dress or jeans and a party top.  I call this a “mini-DIY,” because it’s easy enough for anyone to attempt… I promise!

Materials / Where to Buy:  Silver Chunky Chain // Gold Spike Beads // Jump Rings // Pliers // Clasp
