@Someone_ I also use electrical tape! Out of all the different tapes I've used it is definitely the best at holding down my bracelets, especially because I knot pretty tightly. I also use buckles(like the kind you see on paracords) a lot especially when making alphas because they look cool on my bracelets and they're more practical than bracelet ties which always seem to either fall off when I'm going somewhere or be really hard to untie.

I tie strings onto the actual clipboard to add more string onto my bracelet like I don't use tape like other knotters 🤷

I use tape. Like ALOT of tape. Like half the roll. IT STILL SLIDES OUT.

I use a weird flat thread cutter from DMC that has prongs to cut the threads and it always makes it more fun to do something in a different way!!

When I take pictures of my bracelets I use my hair straightener to straighten it out. 😂

Sometimes I iron my bracelets before photographing them. Like, for example #7954 tended to curl in on itself because of the knot structure, so I ironed it first.

so when i first started bracelet making i had an old piece of cork board that i used to knot on! I would put a thumbtack at the start of the bracelet and one closer to where I was working but now I just use a heavy duty clipboard I found.

I use tweezers to untie knots... not the flat ones but the pointy ones

I found this little brush thing from something weird and it works amazingly to make fluffy ends and tassels for alphas and normals!!

Mine is a safety pin. I know a few people use these but their still pretty weird. I use mine to untie knots and sometimes to fasten my bracelets.

I tape my bracelets to my laptop instead of to the table or clip it on a clipboard. I also sometimes tape my bracelets to this in thing have to store my string.

I put the loop on a carabiner and it’s super easy to tie that way. I really recommend it.

I use my hydro flask to knot on. Most bracelet makers find that weird as most use a clip bored 😅
