We are frequently asked what is the best stretch cord for making the very popular stretch bead bracelets - this is it! We made bracelets with every stretch cord made and them put them through rigorous tests and Opelon won, hands down. This stretch cord is a latex free, flat fibrous cord that will stretch and then bounce back. It's shape contributes to the secure knots you will make with this - and you will not need a crimp!
Opelon comes in two colors: a pale white color, and a opaque black color, and a variety of thicknesses. We also carry a size mix. It is available in a variety of coil sizes and is made in Japan.
Now, it takes the best product and the best process and here it is:
1. String beads with Opelon and then run the Opelon around a second time.
2. Make a surgeons knot
3. Place a drop of E-6000 on the surgeons knot
4. Pull the knot inside one of the beads
DONE!
