The other day I was brainstorming super hard trying to find out a way to have an alpha safety pinned to a pillow, but have a way to tape the base strings too. So I came up with using a plastic page protector with a piece of paper inside and using a safety pin that can go through the layer of plastic and pillow. That way I can secure an alpha loop while being able to tape the string beside it! I feel like I just found a nugget of gold 😂 😂 😂

If you look at the topic "unpopular bracelet opinions" in "other" someone explains how they like to use bobby pins to attach their bracelets to spiral notebooks

I have a piece of flooring leftover from when we started redoing our flooring, it was cut too short to use. It’s 11 inches long and like 7 inches wide. I secure my bracelet using a the clasp part of a broken hanger 😂

Similar to @RileighR sometimes I use a big paper clip on a small sturdy notebook. Other times the classic tape on the table.

I sometimes use binder clips, or safety pins almost anywhere... but if I have the option I use my clipboard

@Cr3ativity Omg! I have to try that! I love using pillows and safety pings but I’ve never figured out how to add string. Your a lifesaver lol!

I use a clipboard, but there is something that I wanna buy someday and it’s called a macrame board, search it up, it’s cool.

I use a clipboard but it had the clip with little zig-zags (tooths,dents idk the word for it) and i diddn't like that (it really damaged my bracelets). So i put a piece of washitape underneath and with a hotglue gun i covered them. it works just amazing 😍. Also when i started making bracelets i would put the loop of the bracelet on a door handle and sit in a chair there. it was really stupid but it worked for a while, until someone open the door pretty hard (faepalm...)

I typically just use ductape and tape my bracelets to my leg, unless they have a loop, which I'll use a hook or something or even a toe works LOL. I've also made tons of bracelets j by taping them onto a desk or my phone, which is easy to carry around and stuff.

I sometimes tie them to a shoe lace or put them in an empty water bottle using the lid to hold it down or a plastic folder with a binder clip or I’m weird and just don’t hold it down at all I use my fingers

I don't know how creative this is but I tape my bracelets to my leg, I angle my leg to make it more comfortable. This also helps with posture so your back doesn't hurt as much!

once a bracelet is started, sometimmes i use a corkboard to secure my bracelets, a thumbtack in the loop, and a thumbtack near the part where im working if that makes sense.

When I was starting out I didn’t have tape ,clipboard or safety pins. So i got a flower pot and secured my string with that. I definitely don’t recommend doing this because my string got stuck in the flowers hahah

What I use is a clipboard with the clip part sploshed with rubber cement to make sure it didn’t cut the bracelet. On the go I use a water bottle with a big snap on lid and just stuck it in there. Either way they ended up making bracelets a bit wonky. When I first made a bracelet I was at camp and just tied it to a coat hanger and also taped it to the wall XD. So not super creative ways but oh well.
