Bangles from Spring Shopping Guide I love Lucky Magazine ! Nothing is better than opening my mailbox and finding a new issue. Well yesterday I got the new issue and in the back where they have the shopping suggestions for spring I saw these cute wrapped bangles that resembled the wrapped repurposed bangle tutorial that I posted last spring.
