Gold Chain Elastic Bracelet

By Invisiblestilettos
Arm candies were a big hit last year and I love making mine.  I actually have two boxes full of bracelets I made last year and a lot of extra strings and beads that I could turn into bracelets or necklaces.  Got this idea from YouTube where this girl (sorry I forgot her name) made a bracelet out of hair elastics and gold chain, and I said, I could do that, that's easy ;) plus that would be perfect because having long naturally curly hair, I always have the urge, no, the need to tie hair my hair especially during this weather, which makes my hair into a big ball of frizzy mess.  Keeping my hair off of my face is a must if your super lazy like me as I absolutely don't like styling my hair during cold days.Gold Chain Elastic Bracelet
