Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Prepare your workspace by laying out all beads on a bead tray or plate.
2. Cut a 12-inch piece of stretchy elastic cord to allow extra length for knotting.
3. Secure one end of the elastic cord with tape or clip it to a clipboard to prevent slipping.
4. Decide on your bead pattern, alternating red jasper, Indian agate, and spacer beads to your liking.
5. String the beads onto the elastic in the chosen pattern until the bracelet fits comfortably around your wrist.
6. Remove the bracelet from the tape or clipboard and carefully tie a secure double or triple knot.
7. For extra security, apply a small drop of clear jewelry glue or nail polish on the knot and let it dry completely.
8. Trim any excess elastic close to the knot without cutting the knot itself.
9. Gently stretch the bracelet to test the knot and fit.
10. Your stylish elastic bracelet is ready to wear or gift!
