When the homemade rakhi adorns your brother&#8217;s wrist, it can represent a special bond.<\/p>\n<p>Step 1: Fold the rakhi thread you have chosen into half to find the centre point. Tie a tight knot in the centre, leaving equal lengths of thread on both sides.<\/p>\n<p>Step 2: Start threading the beads on both sides of the knot on the rakhi thread. You can choose beads of your choice and even alternate different coloured beads. Create a single line or any pattern of your choice. Keep doing it until you reach the desired length.<\/p>\n<p>Step 3: Measure the thread around your brother&#8217;s wrist to understand your required length. Once you have finished threading and reached the desired length, bring the two ends of the rakhi thread together and tie them securely. Trim any excess thread.<\/p>\n<p>Step 4: You can decorate the rakhi with embellishments of your choice, such as flowers, sweets, pearls, kundan, or little idols or motifs. Use glue to secure the flowers or decorations onto the rakhi.<\/p>\n<p>You can also use thread to sew the embellishments. However, remember not to make the homemade rakhi too heavy or uncomfortable.
