Trendy Twine Friendship Bracelet

Hey everyone!
Alyssa here from My Thoughts Exactly :D It is time for another fun Trendy Twine Tuesday!!

For my project today I decided to create something small for Valentine's Day which is around the corner! This project is perfect for those of you with little girls, they can make the project themselves or you could help them out ;) Here it is:



It's a friendship bracelet!

To create the bracelet I used Cherry Cupcake and Posy Trendy Twine.
Here is a close up of the twist:



Aren't Cherry Cupcake and Posy just beautiful together??

To learn how to do this same twist check out THIS video.


I added a tag with a cute little sentiment from the NEW My Thoughts Exactly Lovey Puns - Food stamp set:



And on the back there is a place to fill in "To:" and "From:" (also from the Lovey Puns - Food set)



Isn't it fun? This would be a fun project for girls making their own valentines for friends. The bracelet looks so gorgeous with Trendy Twine, they would be the envy of BFFs everywhere :P


One more picture for the road:



Have a wonderful day!
<3 Alyssa

Hi everyone!  Kasi here with a fun layout using this month's featured twine, Cherry Cupcake.  




I used the Cherry Cupcake twine to "hang" the little banner and also spiraled it onto the center of the flower.

Valentine's Cherry Cupcake twine isn't just for Valentine's Day projects.  Let your imagination wander and use it for a variety of projects all year long!

Trendy Thursday: Valentine's Test Tube Treat Holder

Hi Everyone! 
It's Jamie and my project for today is a Test Tube Treat holder.


I used Cherry Cupcake to tie the Be Mine heart to the top of the test tube and made a bow. 
I love how well this twine matches the Valentine's Day M&M's!


Then I tied 2 small pieces on her hair for bows and knit a tiny scarf for her out of Cherry Cupcake as well.

How cute is Trendy Twine when it's all knit up!

For details on how I made this project please visit my blog-

Trendy Twine Tuesday: Love Take-Out


Bee here for Trendy Twine Tuesday and my project today is a take-out box for which I made a little twine handle.
Sorry for the so-so pics but I took them at night again... :-S




I braided 2 strands of Cherry Cupcake with 1 strand of Posy into a little string that I used as my handle.



To help keep the top closed I used a loopy brad and more Cherry Cupcake twine.

For more details and more pics, visit my blog. :-)
