How to Make a Circle of Hearts Bracelet

We can’t seem to get enough hearts! In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, we came up with this Rainbow Loom pattern that we call Circle of Hearts.

Aside from the fact that it’s adorable, it’s pretty simple to make and it can be made on one loom without needing an extension.

How to Make a Chevron (New SIMPLE technique!)

easy chevron braceletDon’t you hate it when you get all excited because you think that you’ve invented a brand new Rainbow Loom pattern and then you discover that it’s already out there?

That’s exactly what happened to us with this bracelet. We made several of these before discovering that this pattern was called the Chevron, and it was all over Youtube. Our bubble burst pretty quickly, but we perked up when we realized that we used an EASIER technique to make this design. It’s so easy, you’ll be whipping these up in no time – and your friends will be VERY impressed.

We must have had candy on the brain when we came up with this Rock Candy Rainbow Loom bracelet design!

Truth is, we’ve always wanted to make our own rock candy, but we never got around to it. A Rainbow Loom Rock Candy bracelet is the next best thing!

Rock Candy Rainbow Loom Bracelets - Instructions on How to Make on a Rainbow LoomThis is one of our all-time favorite Rainbow Loom patterns. It’s not that complicated – but it is time consuming.

How to Make a Toadstool Charm

We recently watched Smurfs 2 and were inspired to make some Smurfy Rainbow Loom Toadstool charms.

You can make them in any color, but they look the Smurfiest when you use red and white bands.

These charms are small enough to attach to any Rainbow Loom bracelet.
