[Nfb-krafters-korner] ideas for a bracelet

What do you call those rings that open and close and are used for clasps for a necklace.  They are round and would almost be unnoticeable between the beads.

How about a charm idea?  They make charms that clip onto cell phones and that kind of thing, just a  pinch clip and a charm.  That could be the item you move around the bracelet to mark where the bead is that you are currently counting.  Maybe a lobster clasp with a charm hanging off it?

Hi Terry,
We joined two months ago. W were sitting in the doctor's office and Dan asked hwere  would like to go for lunch. I had to be on prednisone for six months and it was playing a toll on my weight. I told him I wanted to go  to W W. We had talked about it often but I was not there yet. Now I am. I am back to where I was before the meds.

Your idea is much more doable then what I was working on.  Mine just didn't have the look I wanted. I didn't like the beading thread showing and my marker, made of two flat heart shaped beads with elastic beading thread to hold them on the bracelet, just didn't look asnice as I thought it would.
Yours, well, quick to make, easy to use and no huge space of beading thread showing. Guess I will try it tonight. Now, to fancy up the stitch marker.
Hmmmm... What could we add to it?
Henrietta

Hi Henrietta;
I did not know you were on the program, too.  How do you like it?
How about an alastic bracelet with an odd bead for your starting point.
Maybe something pretty.  Put on 30 beads and end the bracelet.  Use the safety pin stitch marker to mark what point your at during the day.  If you leave a little slack, then the stitch marker will fit in easily.  I guess, which way you count will be up to you, when you wair it.
What do you think?

Terry P.

Hi Group,

I am trying to make a points bracelet for Weight Watchers.  I want to put beads for the points I get each day and be able to move them past something to keep track of whatI eat each day.

Does anyone have an idea?
