Instructions

1. Gather fabric scraps in various colors and patterns. Cut them into strips about 1 inch wide and 10-12 inches long. 2. Choose 3-4 fabric strips for each bracelet. Lay them side by side and braid them tightly. 3. Once you reach the desired length, tie a knot at the end to secure the braid. 4. For added decoration, sew or glue beads or buttons onto the bracelet. 5. Trim any excess fabric from the ends, leaving a small tail for tying. 6. To finish, tie the bracelet around your wrist, or add a safety pin to secure it until you can tie it on a friend. 7. Repeat the process to create additional bracelets in different colors and patterns.
