Over the last year Ive gotten really good at making hemp bracelets. I don't wanna brag or anything (who am I kidding.. ofcourse I do) but I have yet to see anyone else take the normal hemp pattern and link it to itself like I do. Simple concept, but nobody else has tried it. This little talent started at camp when the arts teacher, Megan, gave me a book on hemp. I took a quick glance, tried some of challenging patterns, then got curious as to what would happen if I started mixing patterns together. I got really into it. Now by "really into it" i mean, I was at a point where I was making 3 a week. Might not seem like that much, but at the same time I was going to school full time and taking lifeguarding courses on the weekends. Each bracelet would take me about 2-3 hours. If school wasn't in the way I probably would have made more.
Recently one of my ski friends dropped a tub of coloured hemp in front of me and asked me to make her a bracelet. I must admit I got a little giggidy. So far I have only used regular brown coloured hemp, so this got me pretty stoked. I had to pick a colour combo that would be feminin, but not so feminin that it would make it look girly. Settled on pink, blue, and purple. Combine that with a rad design, and voila. The bracelet in the picture is the end result! All yours Chelsea!
