    Morning all.
    DD had a pile of these dreaded loom bands turn up last week that I'd ordered (cue me finding them everywhere around the house now :mad: )
    She has her MSE head screwed on though when her school friends asked her to make some she gave the first few to her friends free (because they gave her some) and she's told everyone else they're 50p each :T smart cookie that one!
    She doesn't have the loom though so this morning I had a brainwave and made one out of Lego :money: so naturally I've wasted my entire morning on youtube watching videos for more complicated bands so I can teach her those :D

    You and me both, they are everywhere... And I mean everywhere. Not only do I keep finding the bands, once made they are now decorations on light switches, cupboard door handles, banister rails, vases, they are driving me nuts. :eek::rotfl:

    Dd has a loom but finds it easier in her fingers, if you google loom bands without loom there's loads of you tube...

    The fishtail on your fingers is easy, you put the first band on two fingers twisted like a figure 8, then put two more stretched over the two fingers but dont twist...take the first one off over the fingers into the middle, then put a band on, remove bottom one... You always have 3 bands on and always remove the bottom one over the top of the others...

    Hope that makes sense, it did in my head:rotfl:
