[DIY event] Friendship Bracelet Craft-Up

7.17.2011
This has definitely been the Summer of friendship bracelets, and to get in the spirit of the season, some crafty ladies and I got together in Central Park this weekend to DIY a wrist full.  Armed with  materials from M&J Trimming, we knotted, box braided and wrapped all afternoon. Friend of our blogs stopped by, and some onlookers (included the cutest curious kids) made bracelets with us.  I was inspired by the ladies of Honestly...WTF and cranked out a bunch of their wrap wristlets which went perfectly with my floral skirt and new Coach bag.  I can't wait to do another Craft-Up soon (more pics after the break)!

  17. I am planning a little craft party myself soon inspired by this bracelet tutorial, and now your blog! This looks like more fun than I even imagined. Too bad we don't have a park with grass that is not dead from the heat to sit in down here in AZ. Inside and air conditioned will have to do.
