   8.
   
   Instead, simply slide them over your fingers in an 0 shape. , Take one side of the bottom band and bring it up and over your finger, and then drop it so that it rests on top of the other two rubber bands, in between your fingers.
   
   Do the same with the other side. , Place it on top of the last one, spread between your fingers.
   
   Make sure you do this after each step, so that there are always three rubber bands on your fingers. , Pull one end up over your finger and drop it over the rubber bands in the middle, and repeat with the other side.
   
   Then add another rubber band to your fingers. , You will quickly see a fishtail pattern forming between your fingers; this will be your bracelet.
