****PLEASE INCLUDE YOUR WRIST MEASUREMENT IN THE NOTES ON YOUR ORDER, SO WE CAN BE SURE IT WILL FIT****

All my life I’ve loved little things that connect people who are far apart. I mailed out a flat Stanley as a kid, and as a teen I participated in so many book clubs where you mail the book from person to person leaving notes in it of what you thought about the book. There’s something special about that connection over distance.

A while ago I made a friendship bracelet for my egg I keep in my office, and then made a matching one for myself. I got a few messages from people saying they also want a friendship bracelet.

Then I thought - how awesome and cute would it be to start a #TheBeadsKneesFriendshipClub so we can all have matching friendship bracelets. Then we can all share photos of our bracelets and where in the world they travel too and I’ll save them in a friendship club highlight 💖

The bracelets are on elastic cord. They’re made with antique beads from the late 1800s, and they have a aluminum TBK charm I stamped myself. Since each charm is hand stamped, expect slight variations/imperfections.

They come in two variations - a dreamy antique pink/purple with white accents, or funky random antique bead soup.

 

Collaborative Beadwork Project Call for Submissions

I’m planning a large scale beadwork project and I would LOVE if it was a collaborative project. I’m hoping to include and have represented as many Wabanaki people as possible. No beading required.

Each little circle within the larger circle represents a bead. Print this form and colour all the little circles in to create your design. When your finished, scan it or snap a photo of it and email it to me at Mel.beaulieu@thebeadsknees.ca

Please include your name, age, the community you are connected to and what your design means to you so I can credit everyone properly when the project is finished 🖤

My goal is to gather 365 designs. The project is pretty large and will take me quite a while to get going, but I’ll post updates as I make progress.


wela’lin!
