For those who are just starting to master the techniques of weaving bracelets from rubber bands, we can advise you to start with simple, but rather original models. For example, you can consider the option of how to weave a bracelet from rubber bands "bummer".
Weaving a "bummer" bracelet can be advised not only for beginners. This option is suitable in order to use multi-colored rubber bands that have accumulated from different sets, which are too few to make any pattern. Those. you can collect and use all the remnants of the material. It will take about 100-120 rubber bands to make such a decoration.
Weaving a bracelet from rubber bands "bummer" should be done in 2 stages. First, an ordinary chain is made. This is perhaps the simplest weaving of all, and therefore the chain can be made even on a machine, even on pencils, even on fingers or forks. At the same time, rubber bands are taken in a variety of colors, in a chaotic manner, because the chain is the base that will not be visible. You can also make it colorless.
For those who have just started to master this hobby, detailed instructions on how to weave a bracelet from rubber bands "chain".
- First, the first rubber band is put on 2 fingers of one hand, which must be twisted in the shape of an eight.
- Then the rubber band is no longer twisted.
- The lower rubber band, twisted with a figure eight, should be removed from the fingers so that it is hanging on the upper elastic band.
-
Then the third rubber band is put on, and the second is removed from the fingers in the same way as the first. Next, the fourth rubber band is pulled, and the third is removed, and thus you need to weave a bracelet from rubber bands to the length that is needed.

After the chain has reached the required length, the top layer is strung. To do this, you need to take 2-3 rubber bands at the same time and wrap them around the hook. Collected as much as will fit on the hook.
Then the woven chain is hooked and the rings from the hook are thrown onto it one by one. The thrown rings of rubber bands are stretched to the very bottom of the bracelet. The process is repeated until the rubber bands have completely covered the base.
When the bracelet is ready, its ends are held together with a clasp.
To weave a bracelet from rubber bands "lazy" can be a little different: the elastic bands are simply strung on a chain, without twisting and without stringing on a hook. Such a bracelet will turn out to be more voluminous and fluffy.
