Crafting with Cousin Slide Bracelets!

Come hop along with me and the Designer Crafts Connection peeps and see the cool bracelets we're creating with Slide Bracelets elements from Cousin Corporation of America.

Leather and charms are IN and these slide bracelets allow ANYONE to create a totally custom, statement jewelry piece in about 10 minutes. You don't have to know how ot make jewelry at all to create one of these and, they have to look of Brighton or Pandora brand bracelets at a fraction of the cost. Plus, there is the pride of making it yourself!

I created two bracelets, one from Cousin's Slide Bracelet Collection and one from Cousin's Trinkettes collection. These can be worn together or separately. AND, the Trinkettes bracelet can match any outfit by changing the ribbon, beads, or charms on the bracelet--they easily slide on and off.

To create the bracelets, gather the following supplies:
