How to Make a Paracord Bracelet with Dog Tag?

Assuming you would like a step-by-step guide on how to make a paracord bracelet with dog tag:

materials needed: -Paracord -Dog tag -Lighter -Scissors

Step One: Measuring the Paracord First, take the paracord and measure it around your wrist to get an idea of how much you will need. It's always better to err on the side of too much rather than too little. Once you have your desired length, add about 10 inches to that measurement and cut the paracord.

Step Two: Preparing the Dog Tag Next, you will need to remove the chain from the dog tag. Many tags have a small connecting ring holding the chain in place. Use a pair of pliers to gently twist this ring open. If your tag does not have a connecting ring, simply snip the chain with a pair of scissors.

Step Three: Making the Loop Now take one end of the paracord and thread it through the hole at the top of the dog tag. Then, make a small loop by threading the cord back through itself. This loop will be used to connect the bracelet to the dog tag.

Step Four: Begin Braiding Now the fun part begins! Take the two ends of the paracord and begin braiding them together. If you know how to do a basic three-strand braid, that's all you need for this bracelet. If not, don't worry, it's still easy to do.

To start, take the right cord and lay it over the middle cord. Then take the left cord and lay it over the new right cord. Now take the right cord and bring it up and over the left cord, threading it underneath the middle cord. Finally, take the left cord and bring it up and over the new right cord, threading it underneath the middle cord. You have now made one complete braid.

Just keep repeating these steps until you reach the end of the paracord.

Step Five: Making the Slider Knot When you reach the end of the braid, it's time to make the slider knot. This knot will allow you to adjust the bracelet to fit your wrist and also serve as a way to securely fasten the bracelet.
