In Greece, when March rolls around, kids wear a special red and white bracelet. The bracelet will either fall on it’s own or you can remove it at the end of the month. Usually it looks like this, but I took a different approach and made a red and white friendship bracelet instead. I read a couple tutorials on the internet but in the end I followed this one that seemed simple enough and had a video, just to make sure I understand how it’s done.
I was so surprised about how easy it was and how good it looks! Why didn’t I try this before?

/ March 2, 2013Thank you! I hope you have a great month too! I think spring is closer to Athens than it is here.
