FAQs
Is this kit suitable for young children?
The kit is designed for creative fun, but due to small parts, adult supervision is recommended for younger children.
Are the materials sustainable?
Yes, this kit is entirely plastic-free and made from eco-friendly materials.
How many bracelets can I make?
The kit includes 18 coloured beads and a selection of letter beads, allowing for multiple bracelets depending on the length and design chosen.
Does it come with tools?
No extra tools are required. The elastic string features metal ends to make threading beads simple and easy.
Can I add my own beads to the bracelet?
Absolutely! The elastic string is compatible with most standard craft beads, allowing you to expand your designs.
Troubleshooting
The knot keeps coming undone
Apply a tiny drop of clear craft glue or clear nail polish to the knot after tying it to ensure it remains secure.
Beads are sliding off the string during assembly
Use a small piece of painter's tape to secure one end of the elastic string to your workspace surface before adding beads.
String is difficult to thread through bead holes
Ensure the metal ends of the string are straightened; if they are bent, gently reshape them to pass through the wood beads.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up your bracelet workstation requires only a flat, clean surface to prevent beads from rolling away. To begin, clear a tray or a piece of fabric to keep your beads contained. When assembling, thread the beads onto the elastic string according to your desired design, ensuring you leave enough room at the ends to tie a secure knot.
Care instructions include keeping the wooden beads dry; avoid wearing the bracelets in the pool or shower, as prolonged exposure to moisture may affect the finish of the natural materials. If the string needs cleaning, wipe it gently with a damp cloth and allow it to air dry completely.
