Friendship is a very sacred bond between two individuals. We have our friends closest to us. We share every little joy and sorrow with our friends. When we come off age we stop telling everything to our parents or even siblings we prefer sharing bits with our friends. We share fond memories with our beloved friends and we are holding on to sacred threads of trust and companionship which we believe will take this union on a long journey. So let us celebrate the sacredness the love and the joy of this beautiful relation called friendship this friendship day with great fervor and pomp. Friendship day is celebrated every year on the first Sunday of august.

Let us make a beautiful card for the precious friend we have, who has held through thick and thin of our life. First of all take an A4 sized pink sheet and then fold it in half, cut off 2 inches from the top of the card. Now paste a white square sheet on the front of the card. Get some flower cut outs, the small ones. You can even cut small flowers using a flower cutter. Now paste them on the white sheet as a trail off of flowers.

Now we are going to discuss some gift options for our best friend. You can surely give your best friend a bracelet. For boys choose neutral colours and for girls you can easily go with bright colours, or if you happen to know your best friend’s favourite colour then that is the best. Now take a chain and measure it to the half of your wrist. Now take the colourful thread and start knotting it. When you reach ¾ of the length turn the other side and start looping on the double thread. This is ready. Now you can make a two piece heart necklace one part for you and the other for your BFF. Take a sheet and make a heart on it. Now roll some clay. Then cut the shape out of the rolled clay. Cut the heart in a zig-zag manner from the middle. Now make proper holes to pull through the chain. Paint the heart pieces and let it dry. Pull the chain through and your necklaces are ready to rock your necklines.
