How to Make a Stretchy Cord Bracelet  For Printable Version Click Here

1)   Use measuring tape to measure your wrist.   Add 1” to this measurement.  This will be the finished length of your bracelet.

2)   Select beads for bracelet.  Find a bead with a large hole to use on  the end of bracelet.  The knot that is made to finish the bracelet will be pulled into this bead.
 

3)   Arrange the beads in the groove of the bead holder using inch length of bracelet.

4)   Use a piece of thick stretchy cord 4” longer than the finished length of bracelet. If using thin cord use multiple strands.

5)   Tie end bead on to end of cord using a temporary knot to keep beads from sliding off while stringing, then string beads onto cord.
 

6)   After stringing beads, check the length by wrapping around your wrist.  Untie temporary knot.  Tie both ends together using a square knot. The knot should be tight, but do not tighten the cord as the bracelet will need to be able to stretch.  Tie one simple overhand knot after the square knot. This knot is similar to temporary knot shown above.
       Square Knot

7)   Clip the end to ¼”.  Slide knot inside bead with large hole to hide the knot.

8)   Your bracelet is now ready to wear.
