Homemade Bracelets: Crafts for Kids

Video Transcript

Now I'm going to teach you how to make these awesome bracelets. Everyone can wear them; your brother, your sister, or even yourself or your mom and dad. Even your grandparents could. But I'm going to teach you how; all you need is just some basic embroidery floss you can get at any craft store. A pair of scissors, a clip board or just a book with a clip and I just clip it on to this metal thing. All you need is about twenty minutes to make it or if you get really good at it, it does not take that much time. So you can get any colors you want and you only need five. They are very fun to make and everything for Christmas cause Christmas is coming up soon and everything. So they are great presents and your friends love them and you can actually sell them. So that is pretty good to so then let's get started. What I have right here is the embroidery gloss you can get it at any of your local craft stores. So first you kind of cut them off about eighteen inches or so and then you gather them together. So the tops are all together and about the same length cause you want to have them all exactly the same length or so. Bring them all together and you fold them just like this and then you tie a knot right there. Not where this is but right here. Then leave about an inch long right there, like this. You get your clip board or whatever you want to do just clip or whatever you use and put the knot right under it. You separate it and there we have it let's get started. You put three on one hand and two on the other so you are going to put the green or whatever color put that on your second finger and then your third finger and forth and it looks just like this. Then you do the same except you only have two so it looks like this. Then you are going to, you are going to move the second finger to the bottom to your third finger on the other side with my forth finger. Then you move it up and move it up. Can I see that again? Then you move it up to here and move it up. Then you grab this, the bottom again and pull and then you move it up, move it up and grab the top again like this and pull. You move it up and you move it up again. Then you grab the top and you put it on your forth finger and you pull it tight. You move it up again then you move it up again and pull it up. You keep doing the same steps until you have your long bracelet. So this is what it is going to look like. You keep pulling so if you pull it tighter it makes it more tight and if you don't pull it all it just makes it more loose. It is actually like a five strand braid if you think about. If you can move just a little bit slower. So this is what it is going to look like if you keep going until you think is about the length of your wrist. So then it takes a little bit of time but once you get use to it, it does not take as much. But it is really cool braid like thing but it is actually not a braid everyone thinks it is a braid but it is not. It is a wrist brace. How you end the bracelet is you pick this up at the bottom of the string and you go like this. Sort of making a backwards L and make it so there is a hoop like this and you are going to go from the back through, through it like this and you are going to pull it like this. That is how you end it.
