Before you trade
How a trade goes
PPeace
01Two peace signs. Fingertips touching, one beat — not a high-five.
LLove
02Half a heart each. Thumbs meet at the bottom, fingers at the top.
UUnity
03Palms flat, fingers laced.
RRespect
04Still clasped — the kandi slides from your wrist onto theirs.
Ask first, never pull at somebody's wrist, and remember you never owe anyone a trade. Read this before you offer one.
Phrases
About twelve letters before it stops fitting
Letter beads get about twelve letters before it stops fitting. Pick a line you would actually wear — funny, useful or kind, not a packing list. We count the layout and the leftover letters. You will still run out of E.
Festivals
Pick the festival, count the days
Pick the festival, count the days, and make a stack you can actually carry. We point you to the current rules before you pack.

Handshake first. Stitch after that.
The PLUR Handshake, Step by Step
Peace, love, unity, respect — the four-beat handshake that moves a kandi bracelet from your wrist to someone else's, plus the extra moves some crews add.

How Many Kandi to Bring
There is no correct number. Ranges for a one-day show, a three-day festival and a camping weekend, plus what to make instead of twenty identical singles.

Build
Draw it the way it will sit
Build a cuff that looks like it wraps a wrist, not a perler pegboard. Save it, count it, take it to the hotel carpet.

Wrists after the weekend
Wrists after the weekend. Keep vs trade. If you shot it under the lights, post it. No character IP, no kids, no “can I have that one.”

New charts, twice a month.
One email: the new singles and cuffs, with bead counts. No countdown timers, no 10% off a bead box. If it isn't useful the week before a fest, we don't send it.
