Where can i find materials for making friendship bands/bracelets?
In the US I would suggest Michael’s craft store or JoAnne’s Fabrics, but I don’t know if you have either of those stores in the UK. So, I would suggest you search online or check your local phone book for either a craft store or a store that sells materials for embroidery and/or cross stitch. The floss (thread) that is used for cross stitch is perfect for these types of bracelets. A craft store is likely to sell bulk packs of “craft thread” which is often intended for just this purpose and is very affordable. They may also carry individual skeins of embroidery floss which will be a little more expensive (but still pretty cheap as far as hobbies go) but will give you better color selection. The brand I use is DMC. DMC is a French company and I believe their products are widely available in Europe. (http://www.dmccreative.co.uk) As far as what you will need to buy: – Thread/floss. As I mentioned, craft thread or embroidery floss
