Paracord is a lightweight nylon kernmantle rope that is actually a parachute cord. At one time, it was strictly used by the military during World War II (it’s pretty versatile).
在第82届航天飞机任务中,宇航员甚至使用它来修理哈勃太空望远镜。从那时起,它的用途从军事发展到个人,现在它被世界各地的人们使用。
These days you’ll see paracords used for all sorts of crafting projects. It is durable yet lightweight. A lot of survivalists and homesteaders make use of paracord because it’s easy to work with. Let’s check out some fun and useful DIY paracord projects to try at home.
Paracord Survival Bracelet
I love dual-purpose items. This paracord survival bracelet looks good, and it serves a purpose. If you’re out in the woods and find yourself in need of paracord or rope to help you out of a situation, undo the shackle and you have a length of cord. All you need is a shackle and paracord. They require about 12 feet of rope for the example in the instructions.
Paracord Cobra Bracelet
This cobra bracelet uses the cobra knot. You’ll need about 12 feet of paracord, a buckle, or clasp that can be plastic or metal. You will also need a scissor, lighter, and a paracord fid. There are only four simple steps to follow. Repeat the steps until your bracelet is finished.
Paracord Keychain
This keychain is one of the best paracord projects for beginners. All you need is some paracord, keychain rings, scissor, and a lighter. There are different variations that allow you to add flare to it, but overall, it’s a simple project that’s great for those who are learning.
Paracord Bullwhip
This bullwhip project isn’t recommended for beginners. There are several items you will need besides the paracord, but the instructions list them all. Whether you want a bullwhip for target practice or just to play, everything you need to know is included.
Paracord Lanyard
A lanyard can be handy for holding your keys, work IDs, and small pocket knives. This specificl一个项目需要13英尺长的550伞绳,一个金属夹子,一把尺子,橡皮筋,剪刀和一个打火机。这些降落伞项目很有趣,是大人和孩子的好礼物。
Paracord Belt
是只有我这么觉得,还是这条腰带看起来真的很耐用舒适?当你需要绳子的时候,这条腰带也是一个生存的工具。如果需要的话,它可以给你提供大约50英尺的伞绳。你所要做的就是解开绳结,解开扣环,拉绳子的末端。
Paracord Dog Leash
所以,一条4英尺长的狗绳需要8英尺长的伞绳。这个狗绳降落伞项目是非常基础的,但它会花一点时间,因为它有点长。再往下看,你会发现制作狗项圈的说明。我还听说你可以用降落伞绳做狗的玩具,而且对小狗来说咀嚼是安全的。
Paracord Monkey’s Fist
猴拳的历史可以追溯到19世纪。我读到过,有一段时间,这些被用作武器,但最重要的是,制作猴拳项目是有趣的。你可以把它当作绳子末端的砝码(取决于你把它做成多大),也可以当作装饰品。我有时会坐立不安,所以它也很适合我。

Paracord Zipper Pulls
Zipper pulls are usually the first thing that break. If you have little ones, this project is a great idea for them. Coats and bookbags are easier to open and close if they have a zipper pull. You don’t need much cord since they’re small, but if you want a long one, I won’t stop ya!
Paracord Wallet
I have to say that this is one of my favorite projects on the list. You will be using gutted paracord, and if you don’t have a fid, you may want to get one, or you can improvise by using an aluminum tent stake or something of the sort. The method is a basic over and under technique. A good project for beginners.
Paracord Snake Knot Multi-Tool Belt Pouch
Carrying around a multi-tool in my pocket can be annoying. Some pockets won’t hold them as well as others, so having something like the multi-tool belt pouch made in this project might be awesome. This project uses paracord and stretch cord so the pouch is snug enough to hold the tool, and stretchy enough to hold different sized tools that may be larger.
Paracord Drawstring Pouch
Thisdrawstring pouch requires 100 feet of paracord, something hard and sturdy as a base while creating, a scissor, and a lighter to seal the deal. This specific pouch isn’t very big, but you could always use more cord. It would make a good beach bag or a laundry bag.
Paracord Poseable Army Men
OK, so a few items up on the list, I mentioned a favorite. I must also add this one to the favorites list. What an awesome way to make toys for your little ones. Theprojectis fun, and although some kids might think these army men are not as good as the real deal, they’re still cool because they’re made at home. You’ll need some paracord and thin wire (and something to cut them). Bonus: They’re easy on the feet when stepped on, unlike plastic army men.
Paracord Hammock
What’s better than hanging a new hammock in the backyard? Hanging a homemade hammock in the backyard. This is a much bigger project, and it requires more than paracord and scissors. You have to build a hammock loom before you can begin looming. If you’re up to it, I’d definitely try out this one!

Paracord Cell Phone Case
I’ve seen a lot of cell phone cases and holsters, but this one looks amazing. I feel like my phone would be protected and have some padding to keep it safe. The amount of paracord needed varies depending on the size of your phone. You’ll want the pouch to hold the phone snug, so it doesn’t fall out, and you can make it with or without the belt loop.
Paracord Dog Collar
Here is the dog collar project that you make to match the leash listed above. In order to make a 20-inch collar, you’ll need 19 feet of one color paracord and another 19 feet of a different color. You’ll also need a buckle, a D-ring, scissor, and a lighter. You can use either plastic or metal for the buckle. I think it’s super cute, even if the dog doesn’t know the amount of work that went into it.
Paracord Adjustable Chair
A little woodworking knowledge will be needed for this project. The chair is adjustable with a wooden frame, and the backing and seat are made of paracord. The instructions have all the details on supplies needed, and it’s totally easy to modify this as you wish. I think a larger seat would be a good idea, but that’s just my opinion.
Paracord Laced Hanging Chair
Here, you will be upcycling some wood from a pallet to create an awesome hanging chair. This project only uses the paracord to lace through the wood. I imagine it is totally possible to create a hanging chair completely out of paracord, but I’m not sure how. Any ideas?
Paracord Snow Shoes
This project uses paracord to create traditional snow shoes using paracord as the webbing. With all the snow that fell across the U.S. this winter; these would’ve come in handy. The instructions are divided into two groups: The first being the frame for the snow shoes and the second being the webbing. You’ll need some basic tools for the frame, but other than that, just the basics of any paracord project.
伞绳是一种多功能的材料,使它非常适合各种各样的项目,从DIY手工制作到维修。有很多很棒的想法可以尝试。你最喜欢的是什么?
