After surveying 2259 bracelet makers, these are their top tips for making a durable stretch bracelet:
1. Be mindful of the weight and size of the beads you use. Avoid overloading the bracelet with too many heavy beads that can strain the cord and cause it to break.
2. Gently stretch the cord before and after stringing the beads to reduce tension and ensure even distribution.
3. Avoid excessive stretching beyond the bracelet's natural elasticity, as it can weaken the cord over time.
4. Properly store the bracelet in a safe and dry place to prevent tangling or damage. Avoid exposing it to extreme temperatures or moisture.
5. Use a secure knotting technique, such as the surgeon's knot or NinjaKnot, to hold the beads in place.
6. Use high-quality, durable cords specifically designed for jewelry-making, and avoid using thin or weak cords that are prone to breaking.
