Making Friendship Bracelets
Do you need a great accessory to symbolize your comradeship to another? Try a friendship bracelet. They are personal and sentimental ; and the best part is that you can make them by yourself! First of all make sure you have what you need for making bead jewelry
The great thing is that beaded jewerly making can be enjoyed by the whole family. Friendship bracelets have been around for many , many years. Folk tradition claims that when a person gives you a friendship bracelet, you must wear it and not remove it until it falls off on it's own. Taking it off implies that you are ending your friendship with the individual that gave it to you. .
These bracelets are really easy to make. Most designers use embroidery thread in making them but you may also choose to use hemp. There are a lot of knot styles to select from such as the double-chain knot and the plat but the most commonly-used one is the half-hitch knot. If you're making the bracelet out of embroidery thread, try using two colors. You may also mix your favorite with that of your pal's to make it more personalized and remarkable.
When making the bracelet, start by cutting three strands of one color and three strands of the other. You need to have a total of six strands in your hand. Tie a knot about an inch from the end of all 6 strands. Ensure that you secure the strands with a weight because you will be pulling on them. Form a single knot with the first three strands and another with the remaining 3 strands till the bracelet is the length you want it to be. Secure the ends with another knot and trim them.
One way that you can make your friendship bracelet more special is to add handmade glass beads to them. You may even choose beads that are symbolic to you and your pal. Try searching for beads that represent what it is that you like about your chum or maybe something that reflects both of your personalities.
To add beads to your bracelet, simply thread floss into a needle and string the beads according to the pattern that you like. Take care when stringing your beads so you won't make that many mistakes. It's also useful to design the pattern before you begin to make the bracelet.
Making friendship bracelets is truly a way to bond with your mate. It's straightforward to make plus the product is actually something that you will both love for ages.
