and it's latex free it's the go-to for
jewelry designers and crafters all over
the world today we're going to see how
easy it is to bead with stretch magic
this is Asma Elda she's going to
demonstrate first we'll need a ruler
crafting scissors some beading glue hypo
cement a bead stopper seeds and of
course some stretch magic so use your
ruler and scissors to measure and cut a
length of stretch magic appropriate to
the bracelet anklet necklace or other
beading project that you are creating
we're going to be making a bracelet for
Esmeralda whose wrist is about 20
centimeters we'll use 10 centimeters
extra for tying off so here's our 30
centimeter length of stretch magic now
this is key we're going to stretch the
cord before we use it so it's at its
full length and the bracelet doesn't
loosen once you've sufficiently
stretched put your bead stopper at one
end to keep your beads from going all
over the place lace your beads however
you like now once you have all your
beads on remove the stopper
and tie a figure-eight knot with stretch
magic like this now we're gonna
demonstrate on a much larger scale so
that you can see more easily how the
knots go over and around and back
through now pull it tight so that's our
figure eight knot or you can do a
surgeon's knot which goes right over
left and lender and then again and then
left over right and pull it tight great
so there is our completed surgeon's knot
so what we're going to do now is we
completed a bracelet earlier with
stretch magic and some beads and as you
can see the ends are a little much so we
need to trim the excess so what we're
going to do is thank you as Morelle de
we're going to take our scissors and
trim the excess cord
you
good so now once you've trimmed the
excess you're going to take a little bit
of hypo cement and put it right on that
not a little drop of beading glue will
keep that knot secure and voila
you've created your very own bracelet
with stretch magic there are a lot of
imitators out there but only stretch
magic from Pepperell braiding is the
real deal so make sure you always use
stretch magic stretch magic
