By the end of these 8 weeks, you will be able to confidently make the basic friendship bracelets such as the chevron or even heart bracelet. You will also be able to clean up your bracelets so they look store bought and professional! After these weeks you will have 8 new and unique bracelets! Each week we will learn a bit more about bracelet techniques, and use them first had with a bracelet. After the class, students can work on their bracelet through the week, and show their progress though photos. You can even post in the discussion board any questions you may have, so you don't feel stuck! I'm excited to see you in class! Unlike other friendship bracelet classes, this one will teach you the fundamentals and how to read patterns, so you can go on and make any pattern under the moon! The possibilities are endless!
