I have 8 nieces and they almost all have birthdays in the spring. The younger girls were easy to get gifts for but the older ones needed something pretty cool. Cuz I gotta be the cool aunty ;) So I put together some friendship bracelet kits to keep them busy this summer!
They are quick and easy to put together. You just need to head to the craft store armed with coupons and they are pretty cheap too.
Since I made multiple kits I started with a huge value pack of embroidery floss that was about $10 on sale. The pack had 150 flosses in it and I was able to make 5 kits. I also got these awesome floss organizers that, after using a coupon were $2 each.
I created a tag in photoshop {which you can download it at the end of this post!} and attached it to the lid with double sided tape. I also added a bracelet that I made just for fun.
I found clipboards at that one big huge store I don't like that has a ruler on each side which I thought would be perfect for measuring out floss and knowing how long to make each bracelet. I got it all tied up with some yarn and its ready to give to my nieces!
I've uploaded some tags if you want to print out for your own friendship bracelet kits. Just click on the link under whichever one you want to download.
Wouldn't these be awesome for road trips this summer?!
