[quote=Anonymous][twitter][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Obviously the answer is friendship bracelets. These are very HOT right now, thanks to the ERAs tour. Kids are making them with their fave words, phrases, friends names, etc.[/quote]
My dd just did this at her party. Some supplies from Michael’s and most from amazing. Set up a long table or two with the supplies. Give them cute little pouches (maybe with some candy or something else, too) to carry home the bracelets. Put out extra bags to take home more supplies to finish at home [/quote]

My DD spent her summer making these bracelets and it’s so fun and popular. There are cheap kits on Amazon if you look up alphabet beads- get separate bags of alphabet beads to have enough. Buy separate spools of clear elastic because the stuff the kits come with is in hanks and the creases are annoying. Our stringing method is to tape one end of the elastic down on a table or tray and string from the other end. If you have jelly roll pans or plastic serving trays, use those for the beads. Seed beads are annoying. Clay beads (really flat plastic slices) and slightly larger than seed beads are ideal. Have some pony beads for kids with poor dexterity or little siblings.

Send the guests home with all of the extra beads if you can. I just found a few in my kitchen from 3 months ago (sadly no vowels).[/quote]
