You Will Need (4 things)

  • Elastic Cord 1mm thick
  • Large Beads
  • 1 Small Beads
  • Scissors

Steps (6 steps, 15 minutes)

  1. 1

    Assemble your supplies. I'm using 1mm Stretch Magic cord. Just make sure it can go thru your beads.

  2. 2

    Cut a piece of stretchy cord aprox. 14 to 18" long.

  3. 3

    String your beads onto the cord, long enough to go around your wrist. How big you want it is up to you.

  4. 4

    Tie a square knot to hold your bracelet together.Tugging from the ends and the beaded part, make sure your knot is secure. You can add another square knot if you wish.

  5. 5

    Tie a french knot or double knot aprox. 1" to 1 and 1/2 " on your cord. Make sure your knot is large enough to stop your tassel beads.

  6. 6

    Tie a double knot or french knot at the end of your tassels, making sure your beads can't slide off. Trim your ends. You can add a spot of glue on your knots if you like.
