Instructions


 

 

Step 1.

 

Gather your supplies.

 

Step 2.

 

Sift through the bag of Alphabet Beads and find letters to spell words about love or Valentine’s Day. Some examples of love words we chose were: Kiss, Hugs, Love, Heart, xoxo. Also pull out some red heart beads that come in this Alphabet Beads pack.

 

Step 3.

 

Cut your Elastic Cord to the desired length. Use your wrist or one similar to the size of the person you’re giving it to determine a length. Tie a double knot about 1 inch from the end of the cord. This will hold the beads as you string them on.

 

Step 4.

 

Begin threading a love word on the Elastic Cord.

 

Step 5.

 

After each word, thread a heart charm. When wearing the bracelet, this heart charm will dangle to create some fun movement as you wear it! Continue threading a love word followed by a heart charm for your desired length.

 

Step 6.

 

When you have reached your desired length, tie a double knot at the end of the elastic to keep beads in place.

 

Step 7.

 

Tie both ends together to create your bracelet shape. Trim any excess cord with scissors.

 

Step 8.

 

Wear your “Love Words Bracelet” on your wrist or give to your Valentine!
