Easy to make yourself, this DIY jewelry piece is perfect for adding a bohemian touch to your style.  

1. Lay the bandana flat.

2. Cut the bandana into 1 1/2” strips

3. Knot two  of the strips together so that the new strip is approximately 55” long.

4. Repeat step 3 until you have 3 bandana strips that are 55” long.

5. Braid the bandana strips together

6. Cross the right section over the middle section.

7. Cross the left section over the new middle section.

8. Repeat steps 2 and 3, alternating which section crosses over

9. Add a 6mm jump ring to the charm

10. Attach charm with the jump ring and add to the safety pin.

11. Then customize the safety pin with charms and letters.

12.  It's the kind of little detail that changes everything!   

This bandana trend is EVERYWHERE! We first spotted it on the cool French girls .

I love them as a necklace,  wrapped around your wrist,  ankle or bag.

Bandana bracelet, necklace,  anklet, or bag charm.
