Looking for a fashion accessory that matches most of your outfits? Then this fabulous macrame wristband bracelet is for you. Guatemala's Victoria Zurdo braids the unisex bracelet from waxed polyester cords in neutral shades of brown and orange to go with just about every look and style. It comes with a sliding knot closure topped by a metallic charm.

Costa Rica's Allan Viquez crafts a remarkable men's wristband bracelet using the macrame technique and featuring a sliding knot closure to adjust it as desired. The light blue and beige bracelet is made from paracord or parachute rope, a lightweight nylon cord used for parachutes since World War II and for special survival bracelets that let the wearer unweave the strands and use them during extreme conditions in the wilderness.

This unique bracelet is a long band of braided beads which wrap around your wrist various times, then fastened using a Tibetan-style pewter button. It is made by artisan Domingo Reanda, who was taught the basics of weaving by his farming family, but he found he had a real talent for this and other handcrafts.

Artisan Domingo explains, "To create this bracelet, I found inspiration in the color green, known as the hue of clover, symbolizing luck. Additionally, I incorporated shades of gold and yellow, which in numerous cultures symbolize financial abundance. I aspire for this bracelet to serve as a constant reminder that numerous blessings await, and maintaining a positive attitude will perpetually draw positive surprises into your life."
