Modern fashion allows people of all ages to wear them, including adults. Jewelry will become the personification of carelessness, lightness and youth, as they originate from hippies. Representatives of the subculture borrowed the idea from the Indians, from whom variegated ornaments and patterns went.

Accessories were originally a symbol of friendship. They were given to those to whom they felt sincere sympathy and affection. It was believed that bracelets should not be removed until they were torn. Now less attention is paid to the sacred meaning, and the external characteristics of jewelry come out on top. Bracelets are woven from threads of several colors, and the maximum number of shades used depends on the author's imagination and varies from case to case.

Wide bracelets are usually made in one color. When creating models, fluffy columns and single crochet loops are used, due to which the desired thickness of the products is achieved. Decorations are soft to the touch, they are not as dense as other types of baubles, but this does not affect their strength. If you wish, you can knit additional details, for example, flowers.

Baubles decorated with beads and beads look original. Decorative elements are woven into the bracelet, located along the edges of accessories or at the ends left. Accessories are distinguished by their elegance, they can complement not only everyday, but also a more strict outfit. Large, small beads are used, complemented by a relief or having a smooth surface, round and elongated.

Weaving bracelets from such threads is the most popular. It is easier to create accessories from the floss, there are more schemes for them. In addition, the result is tiny and neat. The variety of shades used makes floss baubles an excellent solution for summer walks, trips to the countryside or a picnic in the park.

The bracelets are made more lush due to the material used. Baubles look great with long ends or a small tassel. The use of yarn complicates the process of making accessories a little, since such threads are less docile. At the same time, it is easier to weave various decorative elements into such bracelets.

The variety of bauble models allows everyone to choose an accessory for themselves. The used colors, details and images fulfill a decorative function or serve as the embodiment of the ideas and beliefs of the owner. A characteristic feature of baubles is the fact that many people prefer to create accessories on their own.

There are as many ways to create baubles as there are varieties of accessories. This is due to the types of threads used, decorative elements, patterns and designs. Beginners should start with bracelets woven in a knotted method, more skillful craftswomen should use more complex patterns.

To create accessories, you need a minimum of materials: threads (floss or yarn) and scissors. Beads, beads, chains and metal pendants are used as decoration. A feature of weaving baubles is that any details found at home are suitable for decorating them: buttons, rings, nuts. Due to the variability of the combination of elements, accessories are unique for each craftswoman.

The easiest way to create baubles. Beginners can take three strands and weave them sequentially until the bracelet is the desired length. A knot is tied at the end of the finished bracelet so that the accessory does not come loose. There are also more complicated options when more threads are used.

For an aiguillette you need an odd number of laces (at least five). You need to take the left thread and move it to the center, then do the same with the right one. Then the action is repeated. The ends can be decorated with large or small beads, metal rings. When the bracelet is made from an even number of cords, the two center strands are first taken. The left one wraps to the right edge, the right one to the left.

Another popular way to weave baubles. For him, strong threads of different colors are taken, and the work is based on four types of knots, which are combined in different ways to obtain patterns. These bracelets are woven from left to right or from right to left. The knots must be the same and tightly tightened, otherwise the surface will turn out to be uneven. In this way, "Zigzag" baubles are weaved.

• Take five strands about a meter long. They need to be strong as they will need to be tightened tightly.
• Gather the threads in a bundle, tie a knot at the end and secure the future bracelet with a pin.
• Join the two strands on the far right, then make two knots to the right.
• Working in the same direction, tie three more knots. Gradually connect all the pieces until you have nine multi-colored stripes.
• The same should be done with the remaining threads, acting in the opposite direction.

Alternate between these two steps until you tie the bracelet to the desired length. To get a wide bracelet, start with a larger number of strands. You can also experiment with color combinations. Use a base shade and decorate it with contrasting inserts, or opt for different threads.

The method is suitable for creating bracelets from several colored threads. The result is variegated and perfectly complements the summer look. This option allows you to make baubles with names and pictures. For beginners, it is better to start with simple patterns or do without them. You will need 6 threads for the base and a skein of braiding cord, as well as scissors and electrical tape to fix the product.

• Distribute the threads so that the leader is on the left. Make a simple double knot and tighten securely.
• Do the action to the end of the row.
• Turn the product over and repeat the knot in a mirror image. Braid the entire second row.
• Repeat until the end of the baubles. To create a pattern, you need to add knots made with threads of other colors.

This option requires eight strands of medium thickness. They should be four times the size of the baubles you want. The entire length will be used in the work, some will go to the fastener. If you want to leave fringe at the ends, you can use extra threads. On average, this will turn out to be about one meter for each color.

• Secure the threads so that the bauble does not twist during the weaving process. This requires tying a knot and using a pin to attach it to jeans, a sofa or other surface.
• Use the right thread to tie a couple of knots on the adjacent one. Moving sequentially to the left, repeat the action with all the following threads. You need to go to the edge - you get the first row.
• Subsequent rows are made in the same way, the working thread remains unchanged. Weave until you get a bauble of the desired length.

The listed methods are just one of the options for weaving baubles. Each option can be modernized, supplemented and changed depending on the wishes of the author, using different color combinations and decorative elements.

Accessories serve not only as an adornment of the image, but also as a means of expression for the owner. Thread bracelets are able to tell about a person's beliefs, his musical tastes and interests, affections. Jewelry can symbolize love and friendship, tell about values. All this is told, among other things, by the color combinations used when weaving baubles.

White and light shades speak of purity, tenderness, innocence of the owner, while red and pink are suitable for passionate and loving people. Colors such as blue and green will signal harmony. Cold tones are associated with calmness, sound mind, warm shades are closer to romantic personalities.

When it comes to baubles, color combinations also play a role. Red and white talk about free love. Yellow, green and blue, present in the range of one bracelet, tell about the wearer's pacifist views. Combinations that include black often denote loneliness. And emerald, gold and turquoise in the language of flowers will mean morning in the forest.

Choosing a bauble as a gift, you can pay attention to those colors that symbolize friendliness, warmth: blue and purple. When creating a bauble, it is better to rely on the character traits inherent in its future owner, and, of course, on his favorite shades. The psychological perception of colors should also be taken into account, because variegated tones are traditionally perceived as more positive.
