How to fix a snapped bracelet?
Kirsty Asked: How to fix a snapped bracelet?
Yesterday at lunch in school, I was going round my friends for high fives. When I done my last high five to another friend, it was quite a rough one. Then my small black beaded bracelet burst, fell off my arm, the beads scattering all over the street (social area). Three of my big group of friends managed to find most of them, leaving me with 5 beads less.
My other 3 (big beaded black, gold with black leopard prints and small beaded gold bracelets) are okay. I bought them from new look which was 5 for 4. Should I just ask for the same ones for Christmas? Haha…
How do I repair it? I don't want my mum finding out incase she goes mental, which I don't want her to do :s If I've lost the bit of plastic/elastic, will I have to go to a cheap place to get it fixed and get the beads added on to another piece?
I would be grateful if you could tell me how to fix bracelets for when I'm older in similar problems like this, lol

There's no need to buy a new set!
You can buy elastic from most craft places, if there's a jewellery shop near you then you can buy elastic from there. If not then Hobbycraft and other places like that have elastic. Just explain to a shop assistant what you need it for, and then they'll show you where it is.
Or you could buy some other cheap bracelets from somewhere like Primark or a charity shop, then cut a couple at the knot and tie them back together to make a longer piece of elastic. Or even buy a cheap elastic necklace from somewhere cheap. Just rethread the beads onto the elastic, and then double knot at the end, just make sure you tie it really well!
