This is another bracelet made with a wrapped blank as the base. I’ve already shared instructions for making a similar bracelet. This one features a vintage measuring tape! So, think outside the ribbon box for a moment with me…what else could we use to wrap a bracelet?

















i really like this unusual treatment. It’s really something different. It has an antigue quality.
Thanks, Corinne! The tape measure is a really old one, so that fits…I’ve been trying to think of what other older fabrics I could use to make one of these.
