Bracelets strung on elastic

Try creating a simple flexible bracelet using the 7.7 mm and 6.2 mm sizes of PRECIOSA Rola™.

We have further expanded our range of PRECIOSA Rola™ seed beads for you. This time, we have selected a shape where the width of the seed bead is equal to its length with the option of using thicker cords in the stringing thanks to the large hole. You can acquire playful shades, surface finishes and colored holes.

Tying the knots

An ordinary knot (the red bracelet) - Create a loop from both cords of elastic and thread the ends of the elastic through it.

A reef knot (the blue bracelet)

Create a small loop at one end of the elastic directly behind the stringing. Thread the other end through it. Twist the loop around and thread the end through it again.

A bow (the orange bracelet)

Proceed in the same way as when tying your shoes. Tie both ends of the elastic together. Create a loop at one end. Twist the loop around the second end. Create a second "loop" in the created gap.
