A year ago, the trend of wearing friendship bracelets knocked my door. For the new things to happen,it requires inspiration for sure. Similarly, I also looked forward towards the formation of friendship bracelets when I saw someone wearing those bracelets in the social media. It looked quite trendy and cozy to me, when I saw these bracelets for the first time. I was very inspired by the designs, collaboration and construction of the friendship bracelets.

The first bracelet which I made was a simple candy-striped bracelet.It was very cringy and was not in a proper shape 😅. It’s obvious that human beings may not succeed in their first attempt,so am I. But when I researched about this and learnt many techniques one by one, I started to improve my skills and got used to those difficult techniques. After that I could make those ordinary patterns like alpha bracelets with writings on it, chevron bracelets,striped patterns,diamonds and many more.

This way I could come up with new challenges and patterns . Though it’s not like that that I succeeded in each and every patterns at the first try……Some patterns were really very frustrating when I tried to make and some were really very easy that I could make it easily without seeing any video. All over I really enjoyed making friendship bracelets…..

So these are some of the bracelets which I currently use the most. Here we can see Rag-Rug bracelet, Distorted chevron,Rainbow chevron, Diamonds, and a Zig-zag patterned bracelet. The distorted chevron was made with embroidery floss. Before I used to make with woollen threads as I couldn’t find those cotton floss earlier. But we can make with any thread of out choice. There’s no restriction in case of choosing materials.

Each and every new creation can be turned into a trend. I believe that we should always keep on trying and creating new things which can be established in a different variation. Life should be very colourful or else we would not be able to know or exist along with different variations

Trend is something which we create for the world by our own skills and imagination. It’s not only about making bracelets or wearing dresses with different styles, but it also refers the way of facing each and every aspects of life.

Loads of love,
