Friendship bracelets are a wonderful symbol of solidarity and affection. With a personalised touch, they can be a unique back-to-school gift. In this tutorial, I will show you step by step how to create your own personalised friendship bracelet using letter beads and seed beads. Don't worry, you don't need any previous crafting experience - our instructions will make it child's play! You can also easily order the craft materials from our online shop.
Step 1: Preparation
Start the preparation by cutting a piece of elastic cord from the roll. Remember to measure the length generously, as you will need to tie a knot later. A good guideline is to cut the cord about 20 centimetres longer than the circumference of your wrist.

Step 2: Stringing the beads
Now comes the creative part: thread the letter beads and wooden beads onto the elastic cord in any order you like. You have the freedom to create names, inspiring words or simply a beautiful play of colours.

Step 3: Finishing the bracelets
Once you're happy with your bead combination, it's time to finish the bracelet. Take the two ends of the elastic cord and tie a sturdy double knot so that the bracelet sits securely on your wrist. Tighten the knot, but be careful not to compress the beads too much to ensure a comfortable feel. If you like, you can secure the ends of the cord with a small drop of handicraft glue to prevent the knot from unravelling.
