Every day is a gift-giving day, not only just for Christmas. I'm a fan of gifting yourself and your loved ones that precious well deserved ME-TIME.
Perfect time to create, bond, and laugh together while creating unforgettable memories.
Learning something new never goes out of style. And when you get to make something unique, you treasure it forever. It becomes a priceless experience that you can teach others who are willing to add to their own collective experience.
The "Name Your Daisy Hair Ties" is such a fun, personalised project that you will enjoy making for yourself or with your loved ones. They make perfect gifts, and they are ideal for stocking fillers. This hair tie can be worn as a bracelet too.
Make as many as you want with your favourite slogans and names. You can even make mummy and daughter slogans. You can create hair ties with your friend's names, siblings or even your pets names

Double thread and knot a cotton thread onto a smaller eyed needle. Start stringing your alphabet beads with seed beads in between each letter onto the cotton thread.

At the end of your last alphabet bead, take your needle and insert it in between the knotted end of your cotton thread. Then pull the string tightly to bring all the beads together.
STEP SEVEN
Once you've pulled your beads to a circular shape, thread your needle back through a couple of alphabet and seed beads, and pull tightly.
Proceed to make a double knot by wrapping the threaded needle in between the beads. Trim off excess with scissors.
