There's no doubt that pastels have hit the fashion scene big time. They're supposed to be spring trend, but seems like many bloggers are overtaking that 'rule'. Even I've started to adopt this ice-creamy trend very fast and I just love how girly and cute it looks.
So are pastels becoming the new black? I think so! And this is why I decided to make some lovely bracelets (because who says this trend is reserved only for clothes?!). I was inspired by Pandora bracelets and Swarowski jewelry and I really like the final result. See for yourself!

So are pastels becoming the new black? I think so! And this is why I decided to make some lovely bracelets (because who says this trend is reserved only for clothes?!). I was inspired by Pandora bracelets and Swarowski jewelry and I really like the final result. See for yourself!
Supplies:
The main thing about making these bracelets is to find great supplies. When you have those, there's really not much work left, because the process is just very easy. When it comes to DIY projects, endlessleather.com is my go-to online store, since they really have everything you need! From leather cords to rhinestones and bracelet locks- I purchased everything on their site.
Step 1: Measure your wrist and cut the leather cords at the wanted lenght (you can also wrap them twice around).
Step 2: Take the end cup and place it at the end of the cord. The great thing about these cups is that they fit perfectly, so you can easily attach them with some superglue.
Step 3: Place your beads. You can add just one or even ten and play with different color combinations. The beads are made of stainless steel and the rhinestones in them look just like the Swarovski ones. So luxe!
Step 4: Place the closure at the other end of the cord.
Step 5: Put it on your wrist and you're 'pastel-ready!' Don't they look so prestige?
Extra: Play around and make different kind of bracelets or wear them with your usual jewelry. Here are some ideas:
