Beadalon Elasticity clear stretch cord, 5 m

Beadalon Elasticity – clear stretch cord for stretch bracelets

Beadalon Elasticity stretch cord is a clear, elastic beading cord for stretch bracelets, power bracelets and hair ties. It stretches like an elastic band and is soft yet sturdy. This makes it easy to slip bracelets over your hand, and they then contract again. According to the manufacturer, designs made with Elasticity stay flexible and have a fluid drape.

The spool holds 5 m of cord (16.4 ft), which is enough for several bracelets. The clear cord is barely noticeable between the beads. Choose the diameter from the options.

Choosing the thickness and tying the knot

The thickness depends on the hole in your beads: the cord must pass through easily. For larger beads or heavier bracelets a thicker cord is the better choice, while a thinner one suits fine beads. Thread on the beads and leave enough cord at both ends for tying. For a secure hold, tie the ends with a figure-of-eight knot or a double knot. Trim the cord ends only after pulling the knot tight.
