Crafted // Day Of The Dead Wristbands

I have surely been going crazy making wristbands. It all started when I made this one...

I had a few skull beads lying around that I had originally planned on using to make an actual beaded bracelet with roses and whatnot for a Day Of The Dead theme. I didn't have any elastic string and I didn't know what else to do, so I found a black fabric band laying in my room. I sewed the beads on, then sewed snap clips at the ends, and voila. I finally made my DOTD bracelet in a different form.

I actually liked how it came out, so I made one for a friend...

...And I made a crapload more which will soon be upload onto my Etsy shop. I currently have one listed, but I've made much more that I plan on posting up soon.

I've been inspired to make wristbands using beads and fabric, and of course I have plans to make much more. If you like any you see, feel free to visit my Esty shop! It will soon be overloaded with wristbands because I've been on a roll with whipping these things out.
I don't know where all of this creative energy came from, but I like it!
