How to tie elastic bracelets - most secure knot!

[@aliciahopkins9686]

Ive been struggling with keeping my eleastics tight for ages. So glad I decided to look again for tips. I was getting the knots but the extra steps you adviced made a huge difference. Thanks!

[@knotqueen]

Excellent! Glad my video is helpful 🌻

[@CaptRennard]

Excellent tutorial! Very simple and super effective. After procrastinating for 13 years, I now have repaired my garnet bracelet. Many thanks!

[@sunghoeeebnd]

Girlllll 13yrs?!😭😭

[@KAl-vf1dz]

I’m in AWE of your procrastination level 🫣💀💀🤣

[@burplejones]

FINALLY a tutorial that works! i struggle with tying knots so much you’re so amazing for being clear omg u dont even know

[@knotqueen]

Wow! Thanks for your lovely comment!! So glad my video was helpful and you are able to make string bracelets!! Yay!! Happy bracelet making 🌻✨

[@pennybergmen8933]

Yep Everyone can string no one shows how to knot properly! Thank you! VERY helpful!!

[@wcfries9484]

You were the first result and I'm betting the best when I looked for tips on this topic. Thank you so much!

[@cocoagirl7921]

I haven't touched my beads in ages, but my toddler niece is obsessed with little stretchy bracelets so I'm gonna crack out my old kit and see about adding to her collection 😁

[@knotqueen]

Great idea! I always think - bracelets won’t change the world but the girls who wear them will! Have fun 🤩🌻

[@pepperminkk]

HELLO i recently went back to beading and this knot tutorial was super helpful! had to practise a little as i didn’t close the gap well at the start. but I’ve got it now :D BIG THANK YOU ❣️

[@knotqueen]

Yay!! So glad it was helpful! Thanks for your lovely feedback 🌼

[@BUGMOTH]

Im literally the WORST when it comes to being able to follow tutorials on little things like this, but i managed to follow this one in only three tries, thank you!

[@knotqueen]

Yippee! Glad it was helpful! 💫

[@luvhlyflora]

what i did when it kept breaking, put some clear nail polish and it was a bit more secure, i pulled it though while putting the nail polish. hope this helped a bit for some people whos bracelets keep breaking!

[@knotqueen]

Yes that would work better than nothing! But nail polish/super glue can be brittle, the jewellery glue has a bit of ‘flex’ to it so is better but you can use other things if you don’t have any jewellery glue available! 💫🌻

[@luvhlyflora]

​@@knotqueen yeahh it also depends on the string! 💞

I have never tried that kind of knot before! I will have to try it out next time I make bracelets.

[@knotqueen]

Good luck! Thanks for watching 💫

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.” ‭‭John‬ ‭3‬:‭16‬-‭17‬ ‭KJV‬‬“ “Verily, verily, I say unto you, he that heareth my word, and believeth on HIM that sent ME, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” ‭‭John‬ ‭5‬:‭24‬ ‭KJV‬‬ “Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the LORD;” ‭‭Acts‬ ‭3‬:‭19‬ ‭KJV‬‬ Repent of your sins and be saved!! JESUS CHRIST died for our sins, so that we could have eternal life! JESUS CHRIST is our Lord and Savior! Repent of your sins and be saved!! JESUS CHRIST is our LORD and SAVIOR and HE loves you There is absolutely nothing more important in your life right now than making sure that you know Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior. Please don't die without knowing Jesus Christ!

Excellent so glad it was helpful!! Happy bracelet making 🌻💫

[@samz2004-4]

Here’s a really good tip: If you have some super glue, preferably in a small tube, then sit that onto your knot, so that it won’t come undone

[@The_TreeEyes12]

I use clear nail polish, works just fine too! (i use a surfeons not furst, for extra security, thej put nail polish! ^^)

[@EboniFaulkner]

I agree! Super glue is my secret ally in keeping my bracelets nice and secure. The jewelry glue is great as long as it sits for 12 hours in case you don't have super glue.

[@xianbaja5895]

Thank you so much!!!! I have been looking for videos to help me out but none of theme works I tried everything I tied so many knots tell my hands are red but it doesn’t work the nuts still get loose till I stumbled by your video then I watched it and then finally I finally made a bracelet by my own THANK YOU SO MUCH❤❤❤!!!

[@CarmillaKnits]

I'm sure you have helped so many swifties hahah! Thanks, that was a great tutorial :)

[@NohemyLazo-q7d]

Wow, thank you, before I couldn't tie it, but when i try this, at the first time it came out, now I can tie up mi bracelets, thank you so much.

[@knotqueen]

Excellent! So glad it was helpful 💫🌻

[@lindahobster7480]

I’ve tried so many knots but they all come open after a short time

[@knotqueen]

Hope this one helps! It’s all in the pulling it tight after you’ve tied it. Good luck 🌻

[@marjeketchum1630]

After doing the square knot shown in video, knot the 2 ends together as you would knot a balloon, getting it as close to the square knot as possible.

[@lamtran4268]

Add a bit of glue at the end of the knot it will stop it from getting loose

[@paulinag3545]

Mine keeps popping as well

[@marjeketchum1630]

@@paulinag3545 try a square knot, then knot like a balloon. Pull tight with each.

[@baymoo]

after what seems like 84 years, I finally managed to tie a bracelet. I’ve given up so many times making these because I can never make it tight enough for it to stay but doubling the type of knot worked for the string that I used. I will be trying the bracelet glue method though because I don’t feel they’re secure enough in my opinion will be buying some at the craft store today. Will report back if the glue held up! ❤

[@mikudayo_biggest_fan3939]

has it worked??

[@ems24441]

I used this tutorial when I was redoing my babies amber teething bracelet! Nice that it’s so secure and doesn’t have any sticky out bit of elastic to irritate her skin! Thank you 🙏🏻

I used this when I needed to repair a bracelet my mom had that broke. I had the clear stretch cord to put the beads on so I did. I needed to figure out the knot for it so I watched this and did the knot. One of the beads had a hole that wasn't all the way through the bead and was glued so I had to drill a hole to fix the bead too. Whoever or whatever company made it made a mistake with it.

[@soyUsernameWasTaken]

There's a special place in hell for whoever thought of using these elastic strings for bracelets.

[@tsmeman63]

To be absolutely sure I won’t loose beads in case the bracelet breaks, I take 2,5 times the length of a single cord and go though all the beads a second time (I’ve got a head stopper before the first bead, or the cord through it 3 times when I put it on the cord). When I tie the knots as in this video, I wrap it around the first cord too. I use glue for the knot as well (Bondic dries in seconds with black light). If a bracelet breaks, it’s never on the knot.

[@knotqueen]

Good tips! 💫

[@moonchild1772]

How do you go through them a second time, without just having the beads go off the string?
