Hello guys! Hope you guys are doing great! Sweet!
Last time I asked what DIY on ankara you wanted and the highest vote was on bangles and earrings! So here it is! Make sure you make one for your self!

1) a blue thread cos d material i used is blue
2) uhu glue: i love this glue, it has saved me from a lot of visits to d cobbler/mallam. it it glues almost everything (except my sisters mouth).
3) i used the scarf of my sisters ankara dress. she doeznt use it anywayz so i dont think she'll notice
4) Scissors.

How to make earrings:

1) earrings.
just wrapped the Ankara around it smoothly(turn in and turn out,turn in and turn out) and glue d edges... 

How to make bangles:


Materials:

The Ankara Fabric
The Square Bangle
Scissors
Mod Podge Glue
A brush

STEPS:::::::
A I measured the amount of fabric I was gonna use

B So glued on the first layer if fabric….I didn't want to risk it looking flat and transparent

C Then I applied the glue on top on the fabric

D Placed the main fabric on and folded it on the inside…

E Left it to dry overnight and covered the mess with another fabric

F I used my hair dryer to make the drying process faster (low heat)
