how do i get back into making these bracelets again? I love the way they turn out but take forever. I have been in a burn-out with no motivation whatsoever. Please give me tips on getting back into this! ❤️

i would probably start with a small keychain or bracelet.

I would also advise starting small(er). Indeed, a keychain or a thin bracelet might do the trick.

But most of all find something that makes you feel (even a tiny bit) "motivated". Motivation comes in different forms. Maybe yours is to make others happy and make a bracelet/keychain that you know that one friend will like, that one that beachy vibed bracelet one that makes you think of a good memory, or just because the color scheme makes you happy. Sometimes the start isn't about WHAT you make, it is the beginning to get back into it and about TO MAKE something.

That's why I advise starting small(er), since that way you don't necessarily have to LIKE what you make at that moment but you know it will be done soon and you will receive the habit of knotting again.

Also: sometimes choosing what to make is the death of the motivation (as I experience sometimes). So maybe try a challenge? let them choose your bracelet or enter the one that helps you with finding a theme? If you want I can make a little list of certain smaller projects and you can choose (or not, depending on you) from them?

Anyway, I hope you find the motivation again soon and I look forward to seeing all the beautiful creations you will make in the future! Good luck ❤️

I always make a bracelet for someone I care about and that increases my motivation because it’s for them and not for me

I literally got out of a 5 month slump yesterday, so here's my tip: work a little on a WIP or something easy-i like to make those mixed bracelets like #90086

I like to make a small bracelet like a daisy chain and a one colour alpha that matches the daisy chain. This also helps me decide whether I like alphas or normals and which one I should make to keep me out of a slump. I hope this helps!!
