Elasticated Bracelet Using Stretch Magic: DIY

All products available from: www.mailorder-b... See below for links to individual products.
One of the easiest ways to start making jewellery is by making an elasticated bracelet! It is such a simple technique but it can look very effective, especially when using high-end beads such as Swarovski Elements Xilion beads, like Emma does in this tutorial.
We often are asked in the shop how to finish off an elasticated bracelet and there are actually a couple of options available! One way is just by simply tying a double knot with the elastic and then securing the knot with a little glue or clear nail varnish. Another way is by using a size 2 crimp tube. Both methods are demonstrated in this video tutorial.

What is the name and size of the pliers ?

[@TheBeadShopNottinghamLimited]

Hi Michelle, The pliers used are the professional chain nose pliers, we sell 2 types of chain nose so if you were to search for chainnose on our site you will see them as the first result. I hope this helps!

what size beads did you use for the bracelets?

[@mailorderbeads]

Hello, thank you for the question. In this project we have used 6mm xilion beads. If you click on the SHOW MORE / SHOW LESS greyed out link below the description hopefully you should see a list of ingredients and links to the pages for those products. I hope this helps and that you give the bracelet a go. Thanks for watching.
