Hi all!I recently found some charms on clearance and was trying to figure out patterns that I could add a charm to that looked good. The charms are all the different branches of the military so I was planning on making each bracelets colors correspond with the colors of the branch on the charm. I would like the charm to be in the middle of the bracelets. (complexity of the pattern doesn't matter. I would prefer normal patterns) Also, are there any tips for attaching charms? Are they better to attach with adding them in-between a knot on a bracelet or would they be better to attach through the bracelet at the end with pliers and the small hoops? Thank you so much!!! I hope that you have a good day ❤️ |

i have never actually tried this, but i want to! i thing adding them in between a knot would be easier, so you don’t have to use pliers and risk breaking a knot or string! maybe as you’re knotting the bracelet, just kinda slip it in between two knots? i feel like it shouldn’t matter between alpha and normal, but i think normal would be easier! if you want an in depth version of how i would attach it just let me know! (it would be highly theoretical though…)

@leviOsa_09 Do you think charms would look better at the ends of bracelets or in the middle? I'm sure it depends on the pattern but I'm still not sure where I should put the charms? |

i feel like it wouldn’t matter, since the bracelet will come together to make a circle around your wrist, so whichever makes your heart happy/is easier!

It sounds like a great idea to match the bracelet colors to each military branch—those are going to look awesome! For attaching charms, it really depends on the look you want. Adding the charm between a knot can be a nice, secure way to keep it centered, especially if you want it as the focal point. On the other hand, attaching them with small hoops using pliers can give a more polished, professional finish, and it's easy to swap out charms if needed
