String Bracelets - A Cheap Way to Make Custom Bracelets
Creating your own bracelet or for someone is one of the best things to do if you want something unique. Custom making bracelets
are also popular today and that the price on how they are made varies from one artisan to another. Depending on what kind of
materials you want to include in your bracelet or the kind of artisan you are hiring to make it for you, the prices can be a bit
expensive. To those who find making their own bracelets is tiring, they hire artisans to make exclusive bracelets for them in
exchange that there is no one else that has the same design. For people who find hiring artisans can be expensive, they resort to
finding cheaper ways in making bracelets. String bracelets are mostly what they resort to because of the kind of materials used
to create one. The basic material all an individual can prepare is a bunch of embroidery threads and then they are set.
When you hear string bracelets, you immediately think of friendship bands. This is because friendship bands are known to be
made from simple embroidery yarns and a little texture-like pattern to create a good design. The popularity of making friendship
bands came out in Central and South America by the Indians. The tradition of the Indians of this time says that they tie the
bracelet to the wrist of a friend who has a wish for anything in that moment. The bracelet is believed to be worn until it has
detached itself from the wearer indicating that they wish they made that time already came true.
Today instead of buying string bracelets from stores, people prefer to make some of their own. The materials
needed to make one is a pair of scissors and at least 6 strands of embroidery yarns. The embroidery yarns should
be of good quality if you do not like watching a bracelet that gets feathery. Beads or other forms of charms can
be added if you want. Sometimes people would add dangling charms like bears, hearts, shapes, keys, watches,
etc. to add more flavor to their bracelet. A 6 to 10 strand embroidery yarn makes a thick bracelet while 3 makes a
thin one. A ten strand bracelet will give you the freedom to make more patterns. The colors of the yarn can be a
single color but if you aim to make patterns you must at least gather a pair of each color. The embroidery yarns
are tied into a square knot into something that will hold all the strands. This is necessary since you will do a lot of
pulling when making patterns. If not then the bracelet will look loose.
String bracelets are not limited to friendship bands. They can be used for fashion as well. Most consumers today
are being practical so if they want to be fashionable but not spend too much on a single bracelet, they look for
other designs that are made from simple materials. Most charm bracelets are made from strings as well.
