Stretch Magic Bead Cord Usage Instructions?

This tutorial demonstrates how to create an elastic bead bracelet using Stretch Magic, a popular stretch jewelry cord. The process involves stringing beads onto the stretchy cord, folding it in half, and then stringing the tassle. The cord is then threaded into the big eye needle and passed through the hole at the top of the tassle. The cord is then cinched together, knotted, and glued.

There are two common methods for stringing beads onto Stretch Magic cord: threading and using bead needles. Threading involves feeding the cord through each end, while using bead needles is more flexible and can be used for bracelets and necklaces. To tie Stretch Magic, start by threading the cord. Some common knots include Surgeon’s Knot, Figure-Eight knot, and Carrick Bend Knot.

To create the bracelet, cut a 12″ piece of Stretch Magic, pre-stretch it by holding one end in each hand and pulling it. Stretch the cord before using, ensuring it doesn’t stretch through. Cross over the two ends of the stretch cord, wrap one piece around the other two times, and pull each end to create a square knot. Finally, pull the cord tight and place it next to a piece of paper.
