Colorful Friendship Bracelets

Friday, April 1, 2016 4 Comments

Hey friends!

Check out these simple Colorful Friendship Bracelets we made to give to special friends!

This month’s Virtual Book Club for kids is Corduroy by Don Freeman, a classic story of friendship.  It’s the story of a bear looking for a forever home and for friendship, a story where he finds both in a young girl who sees past his imperfections & loves him just the way he is.

The friendship in Corduroy is helped by a button.  Corduroy has a flaw that he cannot repair by himself, a missing button.  When the young girl comes along she instantly becomes his friend, see no flaws, just a missing button, and sews him on a new button.

So, I’m getting all mushy on ya – but after brainstorming with V on this, this month – we came up with this beautiful way to show a special friend you care.  These Colorful Friendship Bracelets made with simple string and a button.  So simple but so meaningful.

Even more meaningful is the thread I used – vintage Pretty Punch Embroidery Thread from my grandmother.

Here’s how we made them:

Colorful Friendship Bracelets

The supplies:

  • Colorful Cotton Embroidery String
  • Colorful Assorted Buttons

The how-to:

  1. Thread the string into the button on each side to secure the button.
  2. Tie around your wrist!  It’s really that simple!!

There is no better way to celebrate friendship than with Colorful Friendship Bracelets woven with a button.

Give these bracelets to a special friend to let them know they aren’t flawed, you love them just the way they are, and they will always have an extra button, from you.

Maybe this year, to balance the list, we ought to walk through the rooms of our lives...not looking for flaws, but for potential.” - Ellen Goodman

🌟Potential.  YESSSSS 🙌🏻 I really like this quote 🌟

🧐🔍Seeing the positive first is a great mantra to have when we tend to automatically gravitate towards things that are negative.

🪄Here’s to a bright 2021 and a purposeful positive outlook. 🎉

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟 🤗 How did you HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!!🌟🌟🌟

🤗 How did you celebrate the arrival of 2021? 

🎲We played board games all night (cough cough surprise surprise 🤣) while munching on this charcuterie board.

🥳I surprised Eric & the kids by going all fancy for dinner last night. I wasn’t sure the kids would like the goat cheese (my favorite with fig spread 🤤) so I added some basic cheddar. But they LOVED it - I spread a little on one of the plain crackers with fig spread on top. So good! 

🍈Fig spread, goat cheese, & 2 large crackers is from @wholefoods 
🍇Grapes are from @costco (they have the best grapes!)
🪴Rosemary springs are from our garden.
🧀Everything else is from @traderjoes

Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!! Eeeeeep I’m so excited for my happy mail today!!🤗 (now if all my other mail I’m waiting on would arrive 🧐😩)

🦀🐙🐡I backed Open Ocean from @featherstonegames on @kickstarter this summer.  It’s so incredibly neat to see a game come together from start to finish.

🐠🐟🐬This game is beautiful I can’t wait to sit to play with the kids as they become budding marine biologists.

He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n r He’s a little bit funky... a little bit rock n roll. - I’m kinda loving him though, my little abstract tree.🎄

🧵Right before my dad passed last year, during my last visit with him, he gave me this giant bag of these vintage-y wooden spools knowing that I’d use them in my art classes or some other creative way. 

🧐As I was lesson planning this weekend the idea came to me when I peeked them in my wood craftin’ drawer - CHRISTMAS TREE!! 

✂️I also have a simpler idea in mind with no wire bending/cutting to try it in my art classes as a kinda ‘extra’ project for early finishers. Stay tuned!

Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 I’m grateful th Happy Thanksgiving 🍁🦃🍽 
I’m grateful this Thanksgiving for my Dad ❤️ 

📖📖📖When he was alive I’m not sure I appreciated this book as much, but now that he’s gone it’s made me appreciate him even more that he took the time to catalog all our family recipes into two cookbooks for us to have. 

🦃🍁🍂This Thanksgiving without my mom joining us (she’s with friends this year) I was without her traditional treats like my favorite Pumpkin Cheesecake.

💪🏻So I attempted that (my first cheesecake EVER!) and Tussies (mini pecan pies) from scratch using my families recipes.  I’m so excited to dig in today and the whole time making them made me feel extremely #grateful for my Dad & all he did for his family. 💕
