Baubles are called bracelets, often made by hand. Such a product is a symbol of friendship or love, and usually one person gives it to another as a token of his feelings. And then the lucky one who was handed the bauble must wear it until it flies off or breaks on its own. If the decoration is removed on purpose, it is believed that the feelings have already disappeared. They are woven using a special macrame technique, often from floss, but there are also unusual options, for example, from wire. The woven bauble made of ribbons looks original. The person who weaves such an accessory usually puts a part of himself into it, and the one who receives the bracelet should appreciate it.

Today, people often forget about the symbolism of homemade gifts and simply use them as decoration, complementing their images with such an element. Some believe that this is primarily due to the fact that the ribbon bauble is woven very simply, and it takes only a couple of hours to make it. And even more so, you will be sure that you will not see exactly the same accessories on others.people. Each such craft is unique.

The ribbon baubles can be made using the technique of oblique or straight weaving. The classic pattern is stripe weaving, it can also be weaved both in an oblique and in a straight way.

However, if you decide to weave bracelets from satin ribbons, we advise you to think about colors and shades, as they have their own symbolism. For example, white means freedom, purity; blue - peace, tranquility; green - nature, harmony; red - passion, love. And you can also take into account the fact that the combination of two colors also carries its own meaning. For example, by combining red and white tones, you can declare eternal or free love; yellow and red - about crazy love; and red and green are, of course, the love of nature.

Before, baubles were mostly common among hippies, but today you can often see bracelets made of satin ribbons on ordinary people. Moreover, they are so versatile that they are worn not only by girls, but also by guys. The main thing is to choose a model that will match your image.
