you can make braided/twisted ties and put square knots to make them adjustable, just make ties and let people tie them themselves, or you can make a loop and two ties and the end that people can also tie. another option is you can just ask people to measure their wrists and maybe have a sizing chart or just do made to order

I would make sure that the ends are long enough to go around anyone’s wrist. Most people’s wrist are on average 6-7 inches so make your actual bracelet 5-6 inches and then your ends long

if you start with a loop and end with a braid or twisted ties you can put the end through the loop then the end through that and pull, it will then be adjustable on any bracelet

I think it really depends on the bracelet. Some patterns may suit one ending/beginning or another. The easiest way for me to decide is look at photos that other people have done. It helps me get inspiration and determine what I want to do. Also, if this is for on Etsy you could the option for the buyer to choose. (I don't know if that is possible, but I think it is possible in one way or another.I that helped. If you need any other questions answered please feel free to message me. 👍 @EBPacker2 |

I think you should start the bracelet with either a loop or triangle ends, you should make it around 6.5-7in and then maybe make the ties longer that you normally would so it can fit everyone's wrist. Or you can watch @maragon video on adjustable ties for bracelets.

You can make the bracelet 6-7 inches and make the ties adjustable. You can also add crimp ends.

I agree with what was said above. I sell my bracelets on Etsy, and what I do is measure all my bracelets against my wrist. My own wrist is pretty small, but this way I know they’re all the same length. Then I make ties that are around 4 inches long and make the bracelet adjustable with the square knot technique mentioned above. I find customers like this, because they can easily take the bracelet on and off as they please, and can adjust it to the tightness they want, without you having to guess. I’ve also seen people who have like 2-3 set lengths and ask customers to select small, medium or large, and then you make it based on that. But in all, I’ve found making them adjustable the best way to do it.

I always always make my bracelets adjustable! I start with a braid that’s like 2/3 inches long and then I knot it and do a triangle start and I send with a triangle and a braid. it’s better to make the braids long so the bracelet can be bigger!
