Quick Cluster Stretchy Cord Bracelet at The Bead Gallery, Honolulu

[@pamtate7877]

Making the coils is a genius idea!

[@thebeadgallery]

Thanks!! Came about in the 90's when "fluffy bracelets" were popular and many of my customers wanted a way to do it with less than 100 headpins.. LOL, necessity will always be the mother of invention!!! aloha!! jamie

[@Agronita1]

Beautiful!!! Love it!

[@allisonkeevers6076]

Very nice, never seen this technique before. It could be used on chain bracelets, leather bracelets, necklaces, etc. There was quite a bit of cord wasted though, which, for people like me on a restricted budget, isn't good, so I would use less cord, closer to the final desired length. That's the only thing I would change though.

[@KimMichaels]

I really Love how you put this altogether............so very pretty........Thank you.......hugssssss

It's a huge spool of clear plastic line that we got over 20 years ago!! If you need a piece, let us know and we can add a couple feet to your next order ;). aloha!!! www.thebeadgallery.com

What kind and size of thread is that, if you don't mind me asking.

We use a stretchy cord from Hong Kong that doesn't have a "size" on it.. We have it on our website tho!!! Let us know if you need assistance - email us at [e-mail]

[@arunakamala23]

What a great idea. I love how this turned out. Thanks for sharing :)

Great video. Very informative. What is the size of the cord? I checked your website but wasn’t able to locate the information.

Hi Jaime, I love this tutorial, the bracelet, the [new-to- me] technic and the wrap n tap tool! I'm very curious to know what else we could do with the wrap-n-tap tool. Is there a tutorial for that? Please reply when you have time. I realize this is an older video, which was probably made before I became a subscriber. Thanks for your time & teaching, this was awesome to watch! Stella in Austin, Texas 💙

[@thebeadgallery]

Hi Estella! We use that tools in many of our videos including the heart wire component, the infinity component and clasps just to name a few. Try searching those on our page! And if you need further assistance, here's the link to the tool with video links attached! thebeadgallery.com/collections/wrap-and-tap-pliers

[@sucorradae8565]

What type/brand and size cord are you using?

[@catspaw7783]

The way you threaded on the beads to a 4 thickness thread is unclear did you stiffen the end?

[@thebeadgallery]

aloha! We didn't stiffen the stretchy cord, but we do use a tiny bit of fishing line as a "fake needle" to pull it through!

[@cherieshepherd6362]

Hello I’m in the UK Can I use 0.8 clear stretchy elastic cord or would you recommend smaller? Do I still need to use two stings? Thank you x

[@autumn8034]

Can clear stretch cord be used also.

[@thebeadgallery]

Sure! You can use any stretchy cord that you have, we just recommend using a total of four strands to make sure it's strong enough for your project!

I love the video but what gauge headpins do you use?

[@thebeadgallery]

hi! We used 24 gauge headpins, but you can use thicker or thinner, depending on your bead hole size!

[@ingridinthis3d5dnow25]

what is your recommendation for stretchy cord please. i looked at your website but noticed you are in Hawaii, don’t want to pay shipping costs. i’m in the east coast in the us. thank you & Namaste

[@cmagirl78]

I sure wish you would have been open back in the day I lived in Ewa Beach! Ok, dying to know how did Rex. modify the clip board? I can see basically what he did; however, not quite sure how to detach the clip portion from the board and once you have the piece of wood attached, how to reattach the clip? Is this something I could special order or do you offer it for sale? I am a long way from Oahu these days. So glad I stumbled upon your videos. You all make amazing things. Please let me know about the board. Many thanks and Mahalo! Barb from Greenwood, Indiana.

[@thebeadgallery]

Barbara Wagner email me at [e-mail] and I’ll send you some up close photos so you can make one since you can’t pop in for one :). Aloha! Jamie

[@wendydann8180]

Why did you decide to use 4 strands instead of 2?

[@thebeadgallery]

Aloha! We tend to use 4 strands in all of our stretchy cord bracelets - it makes them last for years!! Please check out our technique in our stretchy cord video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/oH_Ccq2ubMeDoqs aloha!!

[@lifeisgood7740]

What kind of cord dis you use for stretchy bracelet with the bead cluster? Very nice.

[@thebeadgallery]

Aloha! We use a stretchy cord that is similar to a floss! If you would like to order some from us, please email us for more info! Email: [e-mail]

[@tynettamccraw964]

This is so pretty! Can you tell me what size stretchy cord you used?

[@thebeadgallery]

tynetta mccraw thanks for ordering! Hope you are having a lot of fun!

[@lourdesbaby964]

Lovely bracelet 💚 I would like to know what type of “stretchy cord” you use. What size and is it silicone or spandex? I’m in the UK and we name things differently to the US. Those pliers are fab, never seen one like that here!

[@thebeadgallery]

Hi! Unfortunately there is no official name for the cord we are using. We get it from Hong Kong and it's more of a "floss" than a thread so it doesn't have a thickness size. We can however, fit 4 strands through a 20-18 gauge hole. Good luck!

[@leekirkwood1507]

Hello, l wondered if it is what we call shear elastic in UK 😀.

[@karengordon842]

Interesting technique. I'm sorry, but I find the music very distracting.

I Love this bracelet. I would like to buy a pair of the pliers that you used. I have been unsuccessful at finding them. Where did you purchase your pliers? What is the name of these particular type pliers. Thank you. :)

[@vandanalondhe8765]

Great Tutorial. BUT, I don't like the fact that the knot is near the focal beads. I prefer it on the back. Also, you didn't glue it to secure it. And stretch bracelets need the glue, otherwise, it will slide out eventually.

[@chloexianah3070]

Could very much do without the music Bit annoying
