remember friendship bracelets?
i use to spend hours and hours making friendship bracelets
since the weather still hasn't decided to improve
since the weather still hasn't decided to improve
i thought that making friendship bracelets would be a fun afternoon activity with my girls
i have no idea why, but i use to make mine out of plastic string
(that was probably the "in" thing back in the '80's)
i am sure they were beautiful
but i wanted to make something out of the scraps of fabric that i had hanging around
i scoured the web for inspiration and found this lovely tutorial
i grabbed some fabric
had the girls choose which ones they wanted
and spent the afternoon whipping up some fun friendship bracelets
they were so fun and easy to make that we whipped up a few more to
add to the goody bags for zoe's upcoming birthday
hubs has assured me that boys wear friendship bracelets too
boy, i sure hope so!

i used to make my friendship bracelets out of plastic string too..all sorts of fluorescent colors! what an excellent idea :)
Jozen, those fabric ones are so sweet! When I was young, we used string that we bought at the craft store or the plastic string (though I preferred the regular string feel on my wrist better).
Have a happy weekend, my darling friend.
Oh, I really like those with the fabric -- better than the traditional embroidery thread!
Cool. Check out my website: www.braceletsbydesign.weebly.com
