How to make a rubber band bracelet

Hello!
Sorry for such an absence, I started a few posts and just left them there. Strange, previously, Summer made me spend MORE time on the computer, but this time, it seems like I'm spending less...
Recently, I have been introduced to those things called 'Loom Bands' and trust me, people are CRAZY about them. For those that don't know, they are basically little rubber bands that you can easily make bracelets and things like that from. So, I decided to yesterday buy myself a bag of them and try them out.
You can make all sorts of bracelets, here's mine ^-^

They are quite fun to make, so today I will teach you the method I most commonly use for making them!

There are two main types of simple bracelet you can make- simple chain and fishtail. There are other types too, but today I'm just going over the basics.

Alright, so all you will need for this is some loom bands,your fingers, somewhere to sit and some time. 

Oh, and don't forget a clip! (I use an s-clip)

All of those come with the bags of loom bands you can buy, so it's really easy ^.^

So, let's start! :D

1. Get your first band, and make a figure of 8 with it on your index and middle fingers; like this!
   
2. Now, get your second band and put it over your first band, but there's no need to make a figure of 8 now! 
   
3. Put your first band over the second band, just like this:
   
4. Put another band over it, you don't need to make any more figure-of-8s! 
   
5. Repeat steps 3-4, and you will notice a chain going down your fingers. Carry on until it is your desired length! 
   
6. To finish a bracelet, put your last band over the one on top, then grab your clip and attach it to the band on the index finger.
   
7. Grab the clip and take that band off, ensure the clip is still on the band. Using the same end of the clip, attach it to the band on your middle finger now. Take your band off the finger if that helps!
   
8. Now, use the other end of your clip and attach it to your first band.
   

Congrats! Here is my tiny rushed loom-band chain :D

For fishtail, it's basically the same thing but you have three rubber bands on your fingers instead of two. So, you put three bands on, put the bottom one over, put another band on, put the bottom one over etc.

Here's the difference between fishtail and simple chain!

Simple chain

Fishtail

Have you ever made a rubber band bracelet? You're not just limited to bracelets- you can make necklaces, rings, hair elastics... and once you get the hang of it, you can make other things such as hairbands and more complex things!

Have a nice day, and bye bye!
