How To Make A Button Clasp Friendship Bracelet: Easy Jewelry Tutorial
by Jennifer and Kitty O'Neil
Running With Sisters

Make a pretty and easy friendship bracelet using just leather cord and a button. Your bestie will love it! This one is fast, but so cute!

How To Make This Easy Friendship Bracelet
Tools & Materials
1 Silver Shank Button
30” Leather Cord (Round Lace), 1.5mm diameter
Scissors
Ruler

1. Cut a piece of leather cord 30" long. This leather cord is called leather lace and it is soft and smooth - almost waxed. It is round and has a diameter of 1.5mm.
2. Fold the cord in half by lining the ends up.
3. Then tie a knot just below the folded end. This will create a loop which will be part of our clasp.
4. Set the leather down on a ruler and measure 7”. This will be the finished length. Add more length here if you want your finished length longer. Then add 1 1/4” more to the length. Hold that spot on one cord.
5. Slide the shank button onto that piece of cord to that point.
6. Fold that cord end back on itself.
7. Grasp all three cords just below the button and tie a knot.
8. Trim the tails that are sticking out of the knot.
