Not sure why it took me soooooo long to try this; I love the look of the leather bracelets, especially with ambers. But I've got tiny wrists, and was never happy with the way it fit, with the smallest size still being a bit too big. I tied a loose knot in each of the leather straps, and voila! Perfect, and it looks great too, almost like they belong. Hard to tell from the pictures but it really does look good!

It's really lovely trollcat, I love the look of the stones/ambers on the brown leather Smile I'm pleased you have found a way to enjoy your bracelet again!!
I have a leather bracelet too but only have four beads on it Embarassed so I am too shy to show it lol.

Does anyone know how many beads you can add to the leather bracelets without causing to much stretching?

classyclio, I think leather bracelets look best with only a smattering of beads.
