Context time: so my parents have a friend whose mom was a huge raver in the early kandi scenes and she had this bin of unused beads sitting in her garage, so they had the brilliant idea of giving it to me because I love to make kandi. A few days ago, I was digging through a bucket of mixed beads when I found three bracelets that I think the friend's mom made and forgot about.
I think they look cool and I'd want to wear them but I'm terrified of them breaking, especially the rainbow one on the bottom. I think it was originally tighter but the stretch cord just wore out and it's on its last legs. I was considering cutting the string they're already on and putting the beads onto a new string to make them stronger, but would that kind of ruin them? I know its a rule not to give away kandi you got from someone else, but what about taking them apart and fixing it?
TL;DR: does it ruin the 'spirit' of the kandi to take it apart and fix it?
