There is loads of Arm Party potential in our latest craft box, ideal for tweens, teens and all ages creative fun!

Make your bracelets using small and colourful Czech glass seed beads. Stack them for a mix and match arm party, simply wear solo or make and share with your friends.

Once you start making them you won’t want to stop. Friendship bracelets have found their way back into today’s pop culture, making colourful statements all across the world.

What You Make

Make up to 20 dainty beaded bracelets.

What You Learn

Simple to make, use a colourful selection of Czech glass small seed beads, strung on durable fine steel cable and finished with a clasp.
Learn how to secure clasps and customise your unique style using out step by step instuction sheets.

Materials

Bead sizes range from 3mm - 5mm with a variety of shapes, (round, facetted and oblongs) and finishes (rainbow, pearl, opaque, transparent) to create your own patterns and more.
