Soft and flexible, yet strong and ultraviolet resistant. (For increased strength, double the cord.)
Easily stretches to twice its original length.
Cover completely with beads for "endless" bracelets, or use for nearly invisible stretchy hair bands and necklaces.
As with most other types of stringing cord, pre-stretch your Stretch Magic before stringing, and as you tie each knot.
Recommended knots are the Carrick bend (also known as a Josephine knot), or the surgeon's knot.
Which size Stretch Magic for which beads?
Use the largest cord that you can easily fit through your beads. Some general guidelines:
Use 0.5mm Stretch Magic for 3mm crystal bicone beads.
Use 0.7mm Stretch Magic for 4mm crystal bicones and tiny glass seed beads.
Use 1mm Stretch Magic for 5mm and larger crystal beads, gemstones and most Czech glass beads.

1 Reviews /
Avg Rating: 10 /10
0.5mm diameter transparent Stretch Magic cord. Soft and flexible, yet strong and UV resistant. 10-meter (32.8 feet) spools. Easily stretches to twice original length. Knots well, latex-free. Popular for stretch bracelets, and can be used for stretchy rings and necklaces, too. Possible 10% variance in diameter. Great for 3mm crystal bicone beads. If desired, For larger, heavier beads, double up for extra strength.
I am going to review the delivery rather than the product since this is available everywhere and is the same no matter where you get it. Rings and Things are one of my favorite suppliers - their shipments are RIGHT ON TIME and always packed perfectly.
