Crafting your own DIY survival bracelet can ensure that you always have indispensable cordage for any situation that may arise. Not only is it incredibly useful, but it is a growing trend in stylish accessories as well.

To learn how to make this paracord bracelet, watch the video below.

There are hundreds of designs and colors of paracord that you can choose from. A simple internet search will help you find the perfect paracord to suit your personality.

Be sure to get 550 paracord or greater, and if possible, you'll want military-grade cord. It's much stronger than the civilian stuff found at craft stores, which is probably next to useless in a survival situation.

With 550 cord, every foot of paracord equals 8 feet of lashing material, thanks to the 7 inner strands and the outer shell, so with this simple bracelet design, you'll have 48 feet or more of cordage. Get started on yours today and you'll thank us tomorrow!
