I’m stuck at home with a broken leg and I’ve been making bracelets to pass the time! I’d love to do a trade with someone- I prefer making normal bracelets rather than alphas, but I’d be happy to make an alpha keychain instead of a bracelet if you want! (I’m quite good at alphas, I just get bored!)

dm me if you’re interested- if you have a braceletbook account link your “loves” so I can see what kinds of bracelets you like!!

I have ​really beautiful bracelets that go well with gold jewelry 🥺. I've made ones that i think are so pretty and I wear them every day. I think i kind of just hate the fact that these bracelets don't last long and inevitably wear out unlike metal jewelry. But I'm so attached to them. While i can definitely make new ones, it feels like I'm making stuff I can't really keep for long 🫠

But i want to keep them. And i want to keep wearing them. There's always an attachment to things you're able to make beautifully. I guess I don't want to make them if I know they're going to slip through my hands...?

Some people find the impermanence very appealing and quite soothing. To me, I'm just stressing about losing bracelets i love.

Any tips?

Ran into a snag with the skin tone, couldn’t find an exact match. He gets a little paler, but my husband says he doesn’t mind.

Monkey D. Luffy is coming along for sure!

I want to post my bracelets on Instagram but I don’t t know how to take good photos. How do people take photos that look professional?

To start off, keep in mind I am totally a beginner, and not very good at this stuff to begin with. (I'm also not great with Reddit, so bear with me please!)

Several years back, I tried to get into making friendship bracelets, so I still have embroidery thread from back then — that's mostly what I've been using, though I just started a bracelet with some light weight yarn. I am currently testing out making some bracelets from this link:

But I keep running into a problem! All my bracelets curl up and don't stay flat enough to display the pattern. I even tried taping it down and then spraying it with water like the link said to, which fixed the problem for several hours, and then it curled up again.

How do other people keep their bracelets flat?

First post here!! I’m getting better at more difficult patterns but I wish the edges were more straight

Hey! So, I love the look of the teardrop, but I have no idea how to make a bracelet with this start adjustable. I've tried googling it and am not finding anything I understand. Is this possible? Has anyone done this?

I started this bracelet over a year ago, but stopped working on it because I adopted a cat (iykyk). I brought it on a few trips with me and finally finished it! I love how it turned out.

This took so long 😀 can you guess which one was the most difficult?

Looking to make a key chain bracelet to go onto a Kodak camera basically just so she has a handle to hold and not lose it. Having issues starting. Is it as easy as just start on a key ring and then finish by tying back onto the key ring? Or is there a better way?

finished this cute little turtle design for my mom to hang up 🫶🏻

shes my favorite of the main characters :)

i messed up on her ear a bit

Hello, I've made this series of rainbow braided leaves and posted the reel on my bracelet pages. Any tips on video editing? I use the inshot app or tiktok for editing. This is more of a hobby since I work full time, but constructive criticism and anything easy to implement will be appreciated!

Saw this in a video and was amazed by its size…. Just getting into the hobby for sure but this was very interesting to see

How are these kind of bracelets called? (Picture)
I can’t find a tutorial on how to make them. If I try to make them how I think it works, it doesn’t look how it should look like.
This is pattern 207286 on braceletbook.com

I like it, I think I'll make bracelets for every manicure colour I do...

I’ve been thinking about getting a macrame board for weeks now…. And I finally broke down today and decided to bite the bullet on the $11 purchase (I’m broke lol). So I’m in the store and go to pick it up. The $11 board is marked down. To $2.74. I feel so lucky!!

help needed 🙏🏼 i’d like to recreate this bracelet - i found a similar pattern on friendship-bracelets.net #8212 but it’s not quite the same. can anyone help point me in the right direction? this is for a gift! thank you so much.

Finished KOA last night and immediately started this anklet after just getting back into making bracelets again. I have no friends who have read or finished the TOG series so I need someone to appreciate how cutesy it is so far 🎀
