Kandi are pieces given out a electronic shows, usually worn by kandi kids, and is traded as a sign of PLUR. PLUR means: Peace Love Unity Respect. As in, the person you are making this for or the piece you are given is given out of a sign of friendship and respect.
So Kandi is made with pony beads and string found at art supply stores. The beads are called "pony beads" and I usually get elastic cord. You can also add cool things like toys or charms to the kandi you make but you can also use kandi to make charms too!
