Fishtail Loom Bracelet Tutorial with Free Printable Card

Today, I'm thrilled to be sharing 101+ Birthday Gift Ideas for your Friends, including my Fishtail Loom Bracelet Tutorial with Free Printable Card. I was excited to be invited by Kristen Duke to take part in her Birthday Celebration Week along with over 100 talented bloggers sharing lots of inexpensive ideas and free printables! All week long, Kristen is sharing birthday tips and giveaways so be sure to check out her Party. Since we're in loom-mayhem these days, I just knew I had to share a fun fishtail bracelet tutorial along with a free printable to match it! And I have a bracelet printable for everyday or just because, as well.

As for the other fun gift ideas, a lot of these are versatile for any occasion, and can be a present to your friends, family, or even that gal that you'd like to get to know better. Even more amazing--most of these ideas are under $5, and have coordinating printables to make it so easy!
101 Birthday Ideas for Friends
{Blog Hop Birthday designs by C {dot} love}

Lately, my kids are over-the-moon into this whole looming thang. Not gonna lie...mama likey. I mean, a fun way to make cheap jewelry and constructively burn a few idle hours in the dog days of summer? Hellllllllo, win-win! And of course, we love to hand out our creations to everyone {even I can't wear that many bracelets...and I'm a bracelet junkie}. But, these make the perfect, inexpensive gift for all ages. These bracelets can be simple or intricate. And I love seeing all the pretty colors up my arm! They're so not just for kids. Here's one of our favorite go-to bracelets: the rainbow fishtail.
