Photos and Models of Elastic Bracelet
Jewelry and toy stores, newsstands and magazines… all types of businesses invested in elastic bracelets. The fad was so strong that it's hard to find someone who doesn't have one.
It is not known for sure where the fad for multi-colored bracelets began. In some places like Great Britain the fever is so great that children spend hours making and other good time showing their arts to friends or online. It even works as a bargaining chip! How to do it and tips you can see below.
Simple
The simplest way to learn how to make plastic bracelets is by trying out interlacing circles. Join some circles with several alloys and then use only one to tie, thus creating a maxi bracelet.
Braided
The braid model is the best known. The “braided”, as young people call it, recalls the hippie bracelets of the 70s (still for sale at stalls in the sector). Total success!
The mix of tones is what makes this elastic bracelet even cooler. It's worth two colors, rainbows and so on!
dragon scale
The name came about in reference to the illustrations of what a dragon scale would look like. It could have had another name, but the nickname became popular and you should already know: when a teenager names something, it becomes a fever with that nickname.
The differential of the dragon scale plastic bracelet is that it is hollow. It gets thicker faster, thus using fewer parts.
With name
Who doesn't love a bracelet to call their own, right? The elastic bracelet with the name is the best choice for those who don't want to confuse it with a friend or sister.
Each letter is made with unique braiding and always taking a peek to get the same proportion. To look cool two colors is the right one, neutral and full of charm!
How to Make an Elastic Bracelet: Step by Step
Want to learn how to make a plastic bracelet? All you need is a bag of rubber bands and a little time.
To make it easier, separate your elastics by color. So you will not need to search during production. Using pots with niches helps organize by color.
With the fingers
Use your fingers as a support and make beautiful bracelets using colorful alloys. The following video shows the basic step by step.
Com Raibown Loom
Those who don't want to use their fingers can take advantage of the accessory known as the Rainbow Loom. The little treat looks like two knitting needles to help those with big fingers to be able to thread the elastics.
No loom (using pens!)
Don't have a Rainbow Loom? No problem! By using substitutes you can take advantage of the small loom and make your bracelets even faster! See how in the video below.
Crafts With Elastic Bracelet
Did you find the art with elastic to make bracelets so cool that you want to invest in something even cooler? Just get inspired by the crafts below!
The simple braiding of the alloy allows you to use the elastic bracelet as a base to create different forms of crafts. Start with necklaces as they are simpler and weave more to create other forms of art.
Are you already so familiar with bracelets to the point of making your art complex and who knows how to sell? Take a look at the beautiful dolls. They can decorate a niche for a bedroom, birthday table, among other ideas.
How about decorating your fridge with treats made with a plastic bracelet? Create cute little faces, put a little piece of magnet on the back and decorate the fridge door!
The magnet you buy already cut specifically for this purpose in stores selling crafts/party decorations.
Extra care for children under two years old – children under two years old should not play unsupervised with plastic wristbands. They are too light to stretch and can cause damage when dropped or swallowed.
