Stacey's Smiles :)

It seems that summer is finally starting to arrive! The sun has graced us with its presence and tomorrow I'm heading to Hyde Park for a picnic to celebrate a friend's birthday!

I found this amazing vintage dress at Vintage Mischief, a new store that just open near to where I live.

My summer lemonade obsession is continuing with this Copella Apple Lemonade, I love the pink version too and they are even produced here in Suffolk! 

I made some more mini woven chain bracelets.

Strawberry season is here!

I wish I could be in Monaco this weekend it's the Grand Prix I'd love to attend the most! How amazing is this picture Mclaren Mercedes just tweeted?!

Let's Get Crafty: Mini Woven Chain Bracelets

My leather wrap bracelets were eager for some new friends to join them and when I was linked to another Honestly WTF DIY post I found their perfect partners in crime, woven chain bracelets!


I copied these instructions but just used smaller chains to make a mini version! I also couldn't use a hair grip because it was too large to fit through the chain so instead I could just about use a large needle, although the thread was a bit of a challenge to get through the needle eye! I also reduced the number of strands of thread, I used 8 strands in total 2 in 4 different colours!

My sister has a ton of embroidery thread from all her cross stitching so I had a great range of colours to choose from without even leaving the house!

My new bracelets making new friends!

If anyone is interesting in purchasing one of these chain bracelets just send me an email at fiveminutestyle@gmail.com I can make any colour combination you would like!
