Because of Covid-19 hit, we are suggested to stay home and reduce the gatherings. No more parties, I totally understand, however, Christmas is a big festival for everyone, I still want to do the Christmas presents even only drop off at the doorstep. So I decided to handmade different gifts for my friends instead of shopping around.
One of my ideas is 'Chinese Knots', first because I have materials, second I remembered that my mom taught me to make the bracelet using the Chinese knotting skills when I was young, third with my unique design, that means it can't buy it from any store. That's also the reason I LIKE handmade.
Why the design is unique? Is it difficult for you to make your design? The answer is: You can have your own creative design after you learn the basic knots. The design is about the combination of different basic knots, so everyone can have their very own design.
Chinese Knots -It's originated from China and there is a long history in using knots for decoration on clothing or decorative items hanging down from the ceiling or on a wall.
It's also a symbol of Traditional Chinese Culture. You can using the knotting decoration to make jewelry-necklaces, bracelets and earrings, to make keychains or any creative ideas that you can think of. Chinese knotting can be as simple as 10 years old kid can make it or as complicated as you have to take few hours to finish the knotting.
My design is: instead of making keychains or bracelets, I make a bookmark with the Chinese Knotting because my friends love reading, hoping it can be useful for them. Now, let's have a look.
That's really cool! Right?
