Crafty Pinner: FASTEST FRIENDSHIP BRACELET EVER

Hello Flykids!
This is the first post for Pinner Crafty Weekly. Fastes Friendship bracelet was really simple to make - once I got a hang of the fishtail braid.



                                                     Tutorial Here

Here is how mine turned out:
I used two different pinks and a light/lime green

What I ended up cutting off the rest of the bracelet There was about 8 inches of extra "emroidering floss". (I have tiny wrists though - small bones run in the family)

I didnt have a bead so I just knotted it multiple times in the same spot then put it through the hole.

I love how this worked out because:

1. It was quick

2. It was simple

and 3. It is removeable without cutting it off your wrist!

I used to always make them and just tie it to my wrist- then I would either have to spend 20 minutes trying to squeeze it off or end up cutting it. All that work down the drain.

So now with the little knot and the built in hole I can save it forever(or as long as it fits)

Summer is coming to an End

Hey Flykids!
Im here enjoying my last couple days without school.
I went clothing shopping - ordered some supplies from office max and have spent the week getting ready for school to start. Every morning I have gotten up at 7:30 and gotten dressed, made my bed, etc. I think this will be really helpful as I will already kind of be in the routine of getting up early (I know its only 7:30 but to me that is early - sad I know.)

This is my routine right now:

Make Bed

Get Dressed

Do Hair

Deodorize, spray, and Make up

Brush Teeth

Breakfast

Devotions

School starts @ 8:30

 

 

It is simple but it gets me ready for the day and keeps me from getting distracted.

 

Things I am nervous about:

Highschool

Highschool

Did I mention I am nervous about highschool?

Geometry

Spanish

 

Thats about it. I am nervous for Geometry because 1. I got an A in Algebra last year but just barely and I struggled alot. Then I am nervous for Spanish because I havent used more than 5 words in spanish this summer - I forget tons of what I learned :& Yup so thats why I am nervous about that. Oh and nervous for highschoool because well why shouldnt I be? I mean with electives I am in classes with grades 9-12th which means ages anywhere from 13-20 (Im the only 13 year old but whatever..) That is a reallly wide age group and because I am the youngest in my classes it makes it even stranger. Ill be fine though just needed to write down my thoughts. Thanks for listening/reading - I appreciate it !
