Bushcrafters Bracelets embossed with Oak Leaf

[Angst]

ALL WITHDRAWNHi...was up late making these last night...these are the first bracelets i've ever made for sale...as a guideline my wrist comes in at about 19 - 20 cm around. they are 2.5cm wide and 25cm long.

lovely thick 4mm pre-dyed brown...bevelled and grooved and embossed with an oak leaf motif...each one has 2 poppers...the choice being black, brass or nickel.

I'm happy to do them at a lower price for bcuk'ers being £11 each (by 2nd class standard with proof of posting) or £12 each (if you would like 2nd class recorded) by paypal please...the two on the left of the picture are plain (as in no oak leaf...just grooved) and are slimmer at 1.8cm wide and 2cm wide and are £9 each all-in by 2nd class standard or £10 by
2nd class recorded and they both have nickel poppers.

(admin note: i think i can sell about 4 of these without going over my maker sales limit...if i do sell anymore i'll upgrade to maker+)

if interested post on here first then pm me please,

regards

Alright bud.

Very nice, shame you don't have any smaller as would be great stocking fillers (I know getting ready for Christmas already lol) for my boys, or more dainty for the wife!!

All the best

Good work, swmbo, asks why not some women's sized , narrower, smaller ? I'd have one with me being Oak, just no room with a watch on one and copper/paracord on totha. Good luck, sure theyl fly .

yo dude, my wrist is about 20cm too. Are these a loose fit then? or is a portion of that extra length used up with poppers so they fit more snug when worn?

yo brother samon! my wrists a tad under 20cm but yeah theres a little space of course...its not ''skin tight''....and being leather it will of course 'relax' a little with time...as long as youre not much over 21cm it shouldnt be a major issue...you know how i like to make my stuff...i dont like excess looseness in leatherwork and i'm not the sort that wears a wristwatch dangling halfway down my hand or jeans halfway down my backside lolol!

ps i've just put one on and if i squish it snug round my wrist with my other hand it makes a gap that i can get the tip of my little finger into....should be fine m8

what he said

i shall find out and get back to you

5 3/4" is her actual wrist measurement, so i'm guessing that something like 6 1/2" would be about right for a leather bracelet

 

[Angst]

ta for that m8....i'll get some done asap....i've been going round all my neighbours houses too and grabbing their wives and measuring their wrists lolol!....these ones i've done are coming in about 9.5"....my wrists about 7.5"...theres not 'a lot' of slack....i dont like loose dangly things....so 2" is used up in the bend of the thick leather/2 poppers....

i've gotta admit 6.5 seems quite small no?.....for the 2 ladies i measured today a bracelet of 8 inches would be needed....and do you think one popper more suitable?.....and 2 for men?

ta for your help...

not sure to be honest mate, i'm just guessing really based on gemma's wrist size, but if you're making them at 9 1/2" for a 7 1/2" wrist then i guess i'm a bit out on how much needs to be added for a good fit. i'd guess 8" might be more like it for ladies (leave it you dirty minded lot!). as for one or two poppers, no idea mate, i suppose if there's less material overall then one less popper might make it look a bit more to scale

cheers
