Bracelet Craft makes an interesting and creative activity for teenagers. They can learn to make some funky and fashionable bracelets like safety pin bracelets, bracelets with gems, ribbon bands, beaded bracelets etc. These bracelets make a good gift item for friendship’s day, return gifts for pajama parties or birthday parties. They can also symbolize team spirit when worn by members of a team sport or a girl’s club.
Woolen friendship bands
These require three or six 8” threads of different colored wool. Make a loop at one end and then plait the threads together like you plait your hair. Leave the threads at the other end free after tying a knot so the plait does not open. Now adorn the band with some sparkle or small stars in some specific order.
Beaded Friendship Bracelets
Take a string of required length and tie a knot at one end. Take some colorful beads and string them together in a pattern you like. You can alternate between big and small beads or use can use beads with alphabets on them to create your friend’s name with it. After you have beaded them together tie a knot at the other end as well.
Plastic Tube Bracelet
Take a thin clear plastic tube and cut it to fit your or your friend’s wrist. Tape one end of the tube with clear tape and start filling the tube with seed beads of different colors. Again, make different patterns with these beads. You can create different color sections to represent the tri-color or the flag of your club\school etc.
Once you’ve filled the tube with beads carefully remove the tape from the covered end. Hold both the ends up so as to prevent the beads from falling and seal them together with some hot glue or quick fix. For added precaution cover the ends with a piece of clear tape.
These are a few basic bracelet craft ideas. You can get experimental and create your own bracelets using different craft materials and your imagination. Read about following Bracelets Crafts:
