Hey guys!  It’s Kelsi.  I hope you all had good summers full of friendship bracelets and Harry Potter.  I know I did!  I’ve been feeling kind of lethargic when it comes to bracelet making recently.  I do have a new picture to load though, so I’ll upload that when I get home.

I’ve made an update though :) from the front page of our blog, you can now search all the bracelet’s we’ve made!  On the right side of the page, there’s a link to my originals and to Michaela’s originals.

In other news, Michaela got into Pottermore, but I’m STILL waiting for my email.  Oy.  I’ve been checking my email multiple times per day for the last five weeks.  CAN’T IT JUST COME ALREADY?

Enjoy your knots and embroidery floss,

-Kelsi

P.S.: I’ve been working on a watermelon bracelet recently, but I’m just plain bored of it.  I might do another Hogwarts house bracelet.  Gryffindor or Slytherin?

dontworrybehapyy asked: Hi! I really like your tumblr..
I want to make a bracelet for a friend and her name is 'Alexandra' how can I make the letter smaller.. because I don't want to have a big big bracelet..
I hope you can help me.. ciao

Thank you so much! :)

First of all, make sure you know how to do a two-color alpha bracelet.  If you need, you can find a tutorial here: http://friendship-bracelets.net/tutorial.php?id=2

Secondly, if you search “alphabet” on friendship-bracelets.net, a lot of different patterns come up under the alpha patterns for different-sized alphabets.  Hopefully you can find one that’s the size you want.  Good luck making your bracelet!

The website was temporarily down, but it’s back up now.

Because you’re one of the moderators, silly goose.

I know we’ve been TERRIBLY inconsistent about posting.  We apologize for that. We’re both really busy people, and between school overload and various out-of-town summer expeditions, we just haven’t had that much time on our hands.  I hope you bear with us and still enjoy our uploads and reblogs, infrequent though they may be.

Happy bracelet making!

<3 Kelsi and Michaela

lovemelikeudo asked: hi! umm.. i was wondering if these are your designs.. and if you could give me some websites or instructions on how to make these! kay.. thanks!

some of these are ours, and some of these are reblogs.  If you click on the image, you can see if it’s an original or someone else’s.

As for websites and instructions, there’s a fantastic website called friendship-bracelets.net that is practically heaven on earth.  The site has:

• text tutorials
• video tutorials
• THOUSANDS of standard patterns
• thousands of alpha patterns
• everything else you would ever need to know ever to become a pro friendship-bracelet maker.

wellspenttime asked: I'm not sure if anyone's asked this, or if it's just really obvious, but do you sell your bracelets?

currently we do not, but I know I (Kelsi) definitely wouldn’t mind selling something if it was requested.  I’m sure Michaela would too :)

g-r-i-n-d-y-l-o-w-s asked: these bracelets are AMAZING. did you make them ?

we made some of them but some are reblogged…the ones we made have comments under them saying that we made them
