The one with the eye bracelet DIY

One of the things I've been loving for I while now, is the 'Kenzo eye'. This tutorial is inspired by this super awesome print. Another thing I love, is a DIY-project that doesn't need a lot of supplies, tools, or time. For this one, the only thing I needed to get, were beads, the rest was already within reach. This bracelet doesn't take much time to make, you just need a bit of time let the nailpolish dry. 


The inspiration:

What you'll need:
  • elastic cord
  • blue nailpolish
  • black nailpolish
  • beads, I used white wooden beads, and one in a contrasting colour
  • a bit of glue

Start by making a blue circle on each of the white beads, let them dry

 Make a small black circle in the middle of the blue circle

Start beading away! After the last 'eye' make a knot with the two ends. 
Secure with a drop of glue. Cover the knot up with one of the beads.

    1. I have so many bottles of polish, I promised myself not to get new ones until I've emptied some bottles :-) So I need to find other uses for them
