"Children of the 1980s will wax nostalgic over some of the projects, such as the bracelet made of safety pins adorned with seed beads (we called those "frienship pins" back in the mid-1980s), but today's tweens and teens will appreciate the contemporary takes on DIY bracelets."

In the 1970s, there was nothing quite as magical as wearing--and sharing--friendship bracelets with your nearest and dearest friends.
