My little cousins were just making friendship bracelets this weekend and I was saying how I used to do that all the time! I'm SO signing up!
Aww! I just came across this!
I'd love to sign up, but couldn't promise I would have 3 bracelets in the mail by August 5th. Boo!
I used to be a machine making these things!

Just realised that it is taking me an AGE to make bracelets !! I have made one and I am 1/3 of the way through the second, its going to be a tight squeeze!
