Hakuna Matata


Every day we see young people selling Hakuna Matata bracelets on the beach. They usually carry a bunch of colorful thread for the customer to choose the colors him/herself.
Today while getting back from the beach Jacob asked me if I could make him one. To tell the truth, in the past I braided some but this was more intricate like weaving and since I've never weaved one I googled for them and found some very interesting links i will have to check back later.

Nevertheless, I didn't have time to study and try any of the methods, so I just braided his first. He chose the colors himself and patiently held the end of the bracelet while I braided, which shows that he honestly wanted it .

Now his sister wants a bracelet, so off we are to make another.

  4. There's your boy and he's a cutie! The bracelet turned out great. He definitely wanted it since he sat so patiently and held the end while you did the work. Sweet! Best wishes, Tammy

  5. when I saw the title I thought that you would talk about the lion king movie!!! lol
    I didn't know that the bracelets have that name!
    But is funny because, lately, I was thinking to do that kind of research so I can learn and teach how to do it to my daughter on the vacations!
    I think you did a pretty job and you have one happy costumer!
