Chain and thread - a unique take on the friendship bracelet
I got mail! This awesome bracelet arrived yesterday, a clever way of modernising the friendship bracelet with the combination of hard and soft: chain and thread.
See video below:
A friend of mine Alana runs the blog http://thetoussaints.com where she posts about all things creative. After a trip to Thailand a short while ago where she saw loads of friendship bracelets for sale at the markets and around the place she decided to have a go at making her own. (see her blog post about it here: http://www.thetoussaints.com/2012/06/chain.html)
I love how she has introduced the gold chain into its design, it gives it a point of interest and all of a sudden the traditional friendship bracelet is edgy and fashionable!
I requested a CMYK coloured one but you can get pretty much any colourways made and she has made some realy beautiful ones. I would love to get her to make me a long chain necklace with bright turquoise interlaced through it for my wedding so hopefully we can make that happen over the next year!
In terms of weddings, these would be a fab idea as gifts for your friends or bridesmaids. They are only NZD$19.95 and all handmade by Lana.
If you have any queries send her an email at alana@thetoussaints.com
Loving my new bracelet - Thanks so much Alana!!
Stay Snazzy,
