In diesem Blogbeitrag zeigen wir Ihnen, wie Sie mit flexiblen, mit Nylon ummantelten Gummischläuchen in schönen Farben sowohl schicke als auch günstige Armbänder herstellen können. Wir nennen dieses spezielle Band „Spinning Tube“, da es aus einem feinen Nylonband besteht, das um ein hohles Rohr aus allergiefreiem PPC-Kunststoff gewickelt ist. Das Band ist in vielen schönen Farben erhältlich und relativ strapazierfähig. Der Schmuckverschluss wird einfach mit starkem Kleber aufgeklebt, ganz ohne Werkzeug.

You can combine the bracelets in your own combinations as shown above, or you can decorate them individually with charms and pendants. Below is described step by step instructions on how to make the bracelets yourself.

To make the bracelet, you’ll need the following materials:

1 pc. spinning tube, approx. 18cm
1 pc. 5mm magnetic clasp (several colors available)
Jewelry adhesive
A lighter or something similar

Because the outer layer of a spinning tube easily frays when cut, it needs to be burned slightly for the nylon to melt in and secure the edge before glueing.

Disassemble the magnetic clasp and put a thin trail of jewelry adhesive all around the insides of the clasp. Then attach the cord end to the short part of the clasp with a little bit of glue. Note that the easiest way to affix the cord end to the clasp if you use a twisting movement. This also makes sure that the glue is evenly distributed and ensures the best results.

In the same manner, you glue the opposite end of the spinning tube to the long part of the magnetic clasp, be careful not to glue the cord into the wrong end of the clasp.

Your bracelet is now finished.
