However, choosing the right weave is not that easy. So, if you need help, we are here to lend you that helping hand. And now, let’s take a look at some of the best options for a DIY friendship bracelet. It’s time to get your weave on and celebrate your friendship, and this is how to do it.
Double Wave
We want to start our list off with one of the most popular summer weaves. The double wave is classy and beautiful at the same time.
Camp Mary Atkinson
These eye-grabbing bracelets are an excellent new-age twist on the classic design of a friendship bracelet.
Simple Braid
You can never go wrong with the original braid. After all, there is a reason it holds the status of a classic.
Diamond
Diamonds are forever, and that is what a friendship bracelet should symbolize.
Embellished Weaves
Sometimes, you don’t have to make everything yourself. You can just pick up an older bracelet you have and embellish it. On the other hand, you can try to incorporate details from your old jewelry in the new bracelet design you are working on.
The Fishtail
One of the most popular weave designs out there. And, for a good reason – it is very easy to make.
Chevron
The summer camp chevron is one of the all-time classics. Making a chevron style bracelet will take you back to your days of summer camps and having fun with friends.
Skinny Chevron
A lot of people feel that the regular chevron is a bit too thick for them. So, they usually try the thin version of it instead. This style is simple and pretty, and it mixes well with the regular chevron.
Checkers
You can use shiny details to create a checkered look on your bracelet. It is incredibly simple as it involves almost no weaving at all, but you have to know how to work with other materials.
Polka Dots
If you want a simple bracelet that just pops with a bit of color here and there, the polka dot is the way to go.
Beads
Incorporating beads in a regular weave bracelet is very easy, and yet, gives incredible results.
Braided Beads
Braiding the beads in does add a bit of a challenge to your weave, but it is worth it. A lot of people won’t believe you can make something like this yourself.
Rainbow
You can start off with a thin leather bracelet and then work with threads to create a beautiful rainbow. Let the colors explode and customize your bracelet any way you want.
Knots
Making a bracelet out of knots is as simple as it can get. In fact, that is the reason kids love using this weave. It also gives you a very sturdy bracelet in the end.
Hearts
In the end, we would like to close off with our favorite pattern – the hearts. After all, with this weave, wearing your heart on your sleeve has never been easier.
