Try a colorful variation of a pewter thread bracelet without taking the time to sew your braid to the usual strip of reindeer hide. Maybe you need a quick gift that’s unique or you want a style with a little color. Whether you are a beginner or seasoned crafter, this braid variation has all the beauty of a traditional weave but with a punch of color. This “Scandic blue” bracelet is capped on the ends with matching reindeer leather and traditional-style antler button and loop clasp. This is a great way to incorporate some color in your design and cut down on your sewing time to boot!
