CRAFT: Earbud Makeover

Hey all!  I'm back from Florida!  I can't say that I'm refreshed, because I was sick practically the entire time we were down there and couldn't wait to get home and back to my own bed.  However, I did have a blast regardless.  I'm going to do a Disney post soon!  I'll share all my planning tips and tricks, what to wear, put in your purse... all that fun stuff.  


But for now, here's a super super super easy project I did recently.  This was actually at the request of my husband because he hates... I mean absolutely abhors, the feeling of the rubber earbud wires on his neck when he works out.  I came up with this easy, stylish and inexpensive solution.  It's also such a great way to personalize your earbuds!

Boring!

The technique I used was exactly how I use to make friendship bracelets when I was a kid.  (I'm assuming most of you did the same!)

Once you decide to switch colors, just do it as if you're starting from the beginning.  When you reach the volume controls, end the knots with another double knot and begin new on the other side of the volume controls.

I used some man-friendly colors for this one, but if they were my earbuds, you better believe I'd have some neons in there.
