For those who do this and make real money on it - could you look at my pages and tell me what to do to drive more traffic. Most of the bracelets I sell for $4 - it cost me a little less than $1 in materials and I donate $3 to charity. I've donated over $120 from sales but as of late, everyone likes my posts / pins / items but never buys. Facebook Group Etsy Shop eBay
I would try some of the fancier and more complicated patterns. I was selling quite a bit for a while there. People like small key fobs as well. Monkey fist!

I don't really have experience with this, but I can say that it really seems like paracord bracelets have become more mainstream...and all the EDC hipsters are done with it. However, I think if you use some heavy duty barrel neodymium magnets as closures, that would do well. Or badge necklaces, maybe? Make a bunch of zipper pulls asst. packs with the little pull tabs...glow in the dark 550...tether cord hybrid
Idk...just gotta make it something 'newish' and different.
(About Q's package) Willydigger:
"Is it mailed? Did you mail it? Where's the tracking? I'm pretty excited. I hope he cries. Think he'll cry? What a bitch."
"Q is an asshole, but he's so dumb I feel like hugging him all the time."

"I'm waiting for Digiorno to cook. Three meat, stuffed crust. It's not delivery, but no place delivers here. So. "
I agree Corn. They are nice and useful in a pinch for sure.... But now you see them all over. I seen some the other day in the store "Five Below" and they were only 2 bucks a piece, which hurts the small time guys who are trying to make and sell them because you can barely ship them for that price much less make any profit.
I'm planning on doing some in "regimental colours", and using " small" paracord (3/32") or cord to make them less bulky may appeals to non-survivalists. Cotton/silk cord good for ladies, especially with weaves more delicatev thasn standard cobra.
or try playing around with nano cord. Q told me about it, so I ordered some, and I love it! I don't wear the paracord bracelets because I have small wrists so they're giant hunky heavy blocks on me.
My problem with some of the smaller cor is the weave is not as tight and it starts to look more crafty. I've worked with the 95lb cord before. How does the nano compare?
