How to Make Stretchy Bracelets (And hide the knot!)

I love love love stretchy bracelets, they’re one of my favorite things to wear and make, because you can make tons of different styles, and they’re easy to put on and take off. I’ve tried out many methods over the years of tying knots, using different stretchy cords, etc. and this video shows my current method based on what I’ve learned.

I’ve done this method with semi-precious gemstone beads too, which can get a bit heavy, and this particular Ninja Cord I use is the only thing I’ve found that’s strong enough to hold those heavy beads and not wear out the cord. I ended up using simple glass beads and some cute letter beads to make a name bracelet on this video because I’ve been seeing tons of those cute letter beads lately, I wanted to try it with my name!

I use the 0.8mm size but you could totally try the skinnier 0.7mm size for smaller beads. I’m sure you could get this on Amazon too, I just like this seller Beadsventure a lot.

Read the manufacturer’s safety info! I just bought this in person at Michaels honestly if you don’t wanna order online, just check your local craft store, it’s a popular glue.
