Instruction Looms Bracelet Step By Step
Creating a loom bracelet is a fun and easy craft project that anyone can do. Whether you are a beginner or an experienced crafter, this step-by-step guide will show you how to create a beautiful bracelet using loom bands.
Materials Needed
Before we get started, you will need to gather the following materials:
- Loom bands
- Loom board
- C-clip
- Hook
You can find these materials at most craft stores, or you can purchase them online.
Step 1: Set Up the Loom Board
Begin by setting up your loom board. Place the first row of pegs in a straight line across the board, and then place the second row of pegs directly above the first row, but offset by one peg. Continue this pattern until you have the desired length of your bracelet.
Step 2: Add the Bands
Next, you will add the loom bands to the board. Start by placing a band in a figure-eight shape between the first two pegs. Then, place another band in the same shape between the second and third pegs, continuing until you have reached the end of the row.
Repeat this process for each row until you have the desired length of your bracelet.
Step 3: Hook the Bands
Using the hook, pick up the first band on the left side of the board and pull it over the peg and towards the center of the board. Repeat this process for the second band on the left side, pulling it over the first band and towards the center of the board.
Continue this process for all of the bands on the left side of the board, and then repeat the process for the right side of the board.
Step 4: Add the C-Clip
Once you have hooked all of the bands, it is time to add the C-clip. Take the last band on the right side of the board and pull it over to the last peg on the left side of the board. Then, take the C-clip and hook it onto the last band.
Gently remove the bracelet from the loom board, and your loom bracelet is complete!
