friendship bracelets

I used to make these endlessly when I was 12, churning them out like I was running my own child-labor factory, and then, of course, I grew up.  But thanks to this reminder on Honestly WTF, I'm back in the saddle again!  I've just finished my first one and I can totally see this becoming addictive.  It's the perfect thing to do while you travel or commute or watch tv, mindless yet productive (if you stretch the meaning of the word a wee bit), and totally satisfying.  I'm combining this one with my Oliphant bracelet and my husband's turquoise cuff (pretty much mine now, thanks!), but it looks great in a summery sporty way on its own too.  And soon I think it will have many colorful little friends, I'm definitely hooked.
