A simple little craft. And you can practice your braiding.
First, go to Michaels.


*it's important that you cut the strands longer than you need them since braiding will shorten them up a bit.

*this is how I made all my friendship bracelets when I was a child.




*use hot glue to secure the cording at the base

Enjoy!



This is very cute! I'll try it, but in a different color. :) Thank you for the idea!

This is such a cute craft! I love braids. I'm not sure I could pull off the headband, though, without looking like a 10 year old.

Love the color of the braids with your hair color. What color would you suggest for dark brown hair?
ReplyDeletePerfection! I love this idea. I need to go hunt down some supplies because I love the idea of wearing a headband but always feel like I look about three years old when I put them in. This one is so cute yet sophisticated - love!
ReplyDeleteSuch a simple yet effective hair band. Looks lovely.

ReplyDeleteGreat Idea! I definitely want to try this!
ReplyDeleteCute! Have a question...what color is the eyeshadow your wearing? Just luv that color. Thx.
ReplyDeleteJust saw this on Sew Mama, Sew! this morning and love it. Super cute! And that is definitely how I made friendship bracelets too. Occasionally I'd safety pin the knot to my jeans. And am I the only one who would sometimes forget about it and stand up and still have tape (and sometimes a half-braided bracelet) stuck to my pants???
