This is a Crafting Queens swap where we will be swapping button bracelets with your partner. There are many different ways that you can make your bracelet, BUT you must MAKE the bracelet yourself. The first step will be to note your bracelet size and any allergies in the swap comments. The next step will be to check your partners’ bracelet size and possible allergies. This is NOT a profile specific swap, BUT you must make the bracelet to size for your partner. The ONE exception is if your partner did not note their size or allergies in the swap comments, then you can use your best judgment. You can make your bracelet using a chain and attaching buttons to make it a button charm bracelet. Embroidery floss works beautifully to make your bracelet. Elastic cord is another option. You can sew your buttons to a wide ribbon, with ribbon ends to attach a clasp and then cover the back of the ribbon with fabric or felt to make it smooth. It is okay to use button stacks on your bracelet. Creative Kismet Button Bracelet Everything Etsy Button Bracelet For this swap quality counts. Please make certain that you use only clean buttons and components. Vintage buttons are great; just wash them with gentle soap and water before using the buttons. If you are unsure of how to do a technique, please PM me and I will be happy to help you. Minimum Requirements: Must be a sturdy bracelet using: At least 20 buttons Ribbon, chain or elastic cord Clasp or closure or elastic cording I will be checking profiles closely.
