Jute and Pearl Bracelet

Don't you love it when you get to knock off something from your Pinterest boards?  I find that I spend way too many days just looking and admiring and pinning, so I love it when I'm able to be productive and actually make something.

I have been staring at this bracelet for some time now.

The original site didn't have a tutorial, but thankfully, Christy's Cuties did!  She does a great job of guiding you through so head on over here and check out her great photos and explanations.

This is the second one I have made and I timed myself.  It took me exactly 10 minutes to make the bracelet.  What could be better? Cute and quick.

I also switched up the stones for another version.

Let me know if you give it a try.  I'd love to see someone else's creation.
