DIY ~ Emporio Armani Inspired Rhinestone Bangle Bracelet


Hi lovelies!  Today's DIY is inspired by this gorgeous Emporio Armani bracelet.  I was able to make it using items I had on hand, but it can be customized depending on what bracelets and rhinestone trim you have and can find.  I of course, made mine in Gator colors :)  {How to after the jump}





You'll need: 3 bangle bracelets, rhinestone trim, wire cutters, super glue (E-6000 would be great too, but I love this Loctite Gel Control for more precise use)


Take the middle bangle and apply glue around one side of it.  Add another bangle.  Repeat on the other side.



This is what you'll have.


Apply glue in the spot between the two bracelets, about 2 inches at a time, and carefully lay your rhinestone trim on it.



Trim the excess chain using your wire cutters, and repeat on the other side.


Here's the bracelet now!


Let it dry completely, and rock it!


I am in LOVE with this, the colors are beautiful and three plastic bangles that would never get worn are now one amazing piece that will get plenty of wear!

  1. How simple was that! It looks like you have a great eye for breaking things down so you can reassemble with cheaper supplies. Love your bracelet.

  2. Wow lia. This is amazing, I am sure a bracelet from Emporio would easily cost $125+. You did an amazing job recreating it and the best thing is that you can customize your own colours. Awesome!
