DIY : Colorblocked Earphones

It has been a while since color blocking stuff started trending. There's nothing that's not to love about it ! Add into that the cool-ness of colored headphones (check out some here) and the messy-ness of wires and cords in my travel bags and you get an opportunity to DIY!

Here's what you'll need to do it:
  • A pair of earphones
  • Embroidery thread of different colors
  • Instant drying glue

Step 1: Start by wrapping the cord near the plug-in beginning with a drop of glue.


Step 2: After a few wraps start wrapping the cord with differently-colored embroidery threads with an occasional drop of glue.


Step 3: Wrap up till the "y-junction" of wires. For this part, you'll need to do the 8-Wrap, that is wrap around the cords as if you are tracing the "8" shape a couple of times.


Step 4: Continue along the individual cords until you reach the ear plug. 



Step 5: Embellish, if you prefer!

Here you have it



This was so fun to make- I'm thinking of coloring up the other cords too! :)

-Cheers
