What You’ll Need To Make Taylor Swift Friendship Bracelets

Before you start crafting, gather these essential supplies:

• Embroidery Floss or String: Choose a variety of colours that represent different Taylor Swift eras or your favourite albums.
• Scissors: A sharp pair to cut the strings.
• Tape or Clipboard: To hold your bracelet steady while you work.
• Beads and Charms: Add some sparkle and personalisation with beads and charms that reflect your favourite songs or lyrics.

Where To Buy Friendship Bracelet Beads

You can shop a huge section of friendship bracelet beads on Amazon, SHEIN, Flying Tiger and other hobby and craft stores

Getting Started

Step 1: Choose Your Colors

Pick colors that represent different eras of Taylor’s music. For example:

• Debut: Green and white
• Fearless: Gold and yellow
• Speak Now: Purple and pink
• Red: Red and black
• 1989: Blue and white
• Reputation: Black and silver
• Lover: Pastel pink, blue, and purple
• Folklore: Grey and green
• Evermore: Orange and brown
• Midnights: Dark blue and silver
• The Tortured Poets Department: White, black and gold

Step 2: Cut Your Strings

Cut several pieces of embroidery floss about 60-70 cm long. You’ll need at least three strands, but you can use more for a thicker bracelet.

Step 3: Secure Your Strings

Tie a knot at one end of your strings and tape it down to a flat surface or secure it with a clipboard. This keeps your bracelet steady as you work.

Step 4: Start Adding Beads

If you want to add beads or charms, thread them onto the strings before you finish the bracelet. You can use letter beads to spell out favorite lyrics or album titles.

Step 5: Finish Your Bracelet

When your bracelet is the right length, tie a final knot to secure it. Trim any excess string, and you’re done!
