Today's throwback Thursday is one of the oldest products in my shop. I first came across the concept of wish bracelets when I received one in my goody bag for supporting the Molke kick-starter (I've waxed lyrical about my love of Molke a lot before, so I'll leave it for the moment). My wish bracelets come on a KPD card, with a poem explaining what they are and how they work. The different versions each have a different poem as well.

The simplest style of wish bracelets is this charm version - it's a simple charm tied onto a waxed linen thread, with the idea that you make a wish when you tie the bracelet on, and when it falls off, your wish will come true!

I've also made this lush mermaid version - these are a bit trickier, as the shell won't thread onto the waxed thread, so I had to find a way around it, but I managed it.

I've also got these personalised ones, where you could have a word or name put on. I also have a bunch of different colours to choose from, I've got brown, white and black listed in my shop, but I've also got at least purple and red in stock, and it's easy enough to get hold of different colours, so if you have something in mind, drop me a message over on my facebook page.

I always finish the ends of my wish bracelets with a simple clear bead, I feel it really adds to a more finished look.

These are one of the cheapest products in my shop at £1 each - and I can do discounts on bulk buys as well. Don't forget, it's only 2 months until Christmas day today! (eeeek!) So I'll leave you with this picture of my Christmas wish bracelet. A perfect stocking filler.
