How to Expand a Friendship Bracelet
- 1). Untie the end of your bracelet. If you are in the process of creating the bracelet and have simply run out of thread, skip this step.
- 2). Choose embroidery thread that closely matches the colors of your bracelet. The easiest way to do this is to take the bracelet with you to a craft or fabric store when you buy your thread.
- 3). Cut a length of embroidery thread in each color you need and match them with the corresponding threads of your bracelet.
- 4). Tie the existing threads and the new lengths of thread together using a basic double knot.
- 5). Add a dab of clear nail polish to each knot and let it dry. Turn the bracelet over, add a second dab of nail polish to the knots and allow it to dry.
- 6). Trim the excess threads away from the knots.
- 7). Weave the extended threads of the bracelet using the original bracelet pattern. When you achieve the desired length, tie the threads together and cut away all but about 1 inch of the excess.
