Hex Nut Bracelet

Another DIY Pinterest treasure!! Gave this bracelet to a friend for her birthday along with an essie nail polish (I think it's called turquoise & caicos).

simple, elegant, unique!

I love how the materials of the bracelet are just string and hex nuts from the hardware store! I will admit though that I was slightly embarrassed when I went to pick up my supplies at Home Depot (I think I have a penchant for doing embarrassing things at Home Depot!). They had run out of the brass colored nuts, and the nice old man who was helping me was telling me that the zinc ones work for most applications and that the brass ones would only be needed if I were concerned about water corrosion. How could I tell him that I was just particular to the color... because I was making jewelry... 

I have enough extra material to make a few more (in zinc), so if anyone* wants one, leave me a comment!**
