This is a quick and easy friendship bracelet using buttons :)


THINGS YOU'LL NEED :

1. 3-4 DIFFERENT COLORED SPOOLS OF THREAD
2. YARN TO BLEND (OPTIONAL) 
3. BUTTONS
4. SEWING NEEDLE
5.SCISSORS

YOU START OFF BY PULLING ALL 3-4 COLORED THREADS TOGETHER MEASURING OUT  8 INCHES IN LENGTH. THEN YOU CUT AND REPEAT UNTIL YOU GET THE THICKNESS OF THE BRACELET THAT YOU WANT. SEPARATE THE CUT THREAD INTO TWO SECTIONS AND TIE. NEXT YOU BRAID THE THREADS TOGETHER, I CHOSE TO USE THE FISHTAIL METHOD FOR MINE. AFTER BRAIDING THE THREADS TO TIE THE END TOGETHER. SEW ON BUTTONSTO MAKE YOUR OWN DESIGN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BRAID. LAST YOU WANT TO  SEW ON A BUTTON TO THE END OF THE BRACELET AND SEW A LOOP WITH THE TWO ENDS OF THE BEGINNING OF THE BRACELET. THAT COMPLETES YOUR BFF BRACELET MADE WITH BUTTONS :)
