You can get creative with stretch cord in your jewelry-making projects. Cheri used stretch cord bands from The Beadsmith for this Endless Loom project, along with beautiful TOHO seed beads. The stretch bands give this bracelet a little bit of stretch, so it's easy to slip on and off. Discover more ideas for creating stylish stretch bracelets in this Artbeads Cafe episode.
Choose the Endless Loom Bands you want to use for your bracelet. They tend to stretch about 1/2 inch in size after weaving, so we recommend using a band size 1/2 inch smaller than the desired finished size. We used 7-inch bands for our 7 1/2 inch bracelet.
Set up the Endless Loom for making a bracelet, using the rods for a bracelet size one inch larger than the bands you choose.
