This instuctable shows you how to make a bracelet extension. Many bracelets will need an extension so it is good to know how to make one.

Step 1: Placing the Bands on the Hook

Make sure your loom is facing up with the arrows pointing up. Place a rubber band on any row of your choosing and place it straight-forward. Continue to do this until you reach the top of the loom.

Step 2: Placing Your Unfinished Bracelet on the Loom

Grab your triple-single or any other bracelet that needs an extension, and place it on the loom. (My unfinished bracelet is a different bracelet) Make sure the loom is turned around where the arrows are facing down.

Step 3: Looping the Bands

Loop the rubber band underneath your unfinished bracelet. Loop it straight-forward. Grab the rubber band underneath the other band you just looped. Loop it straight-forward. Continue this process until you reach the top of the loom.

Step 4: Placing a C-clip on the Extension

Grab a C-clip and place it on the band you just looped. You can now take the bracelet off. Do it gently and carefully.

Step 5: Finished

You're finished with your bracelet. You can now wear it! Enjoy!
