Crafting your next set of bracelets couldn’t be easier!
Supplies Needed:
- 1 strand of heishi beads (or multiple if you want to mix colors! 1 strand can typically make 2 bracelets)
- Accent beads if desired
- 15" x 0.8mm elastic cording
- Beading needle
- Scissors
- Bead board tray - bracelet/straight form - (helpful, but not necessary)
Step-by-Step Instructions:
1. Cut about 15” of elastic cording. On one end of the cording, tie a loose single knot. This will help keep the beads on the cord.
2. Using your beading needle, thread on your beads in your preferred order.
3. Tie a tight double knot, pulling on all 4 strands around the knot to ensure the knot is properly tightened.
4. Carefully trim the ends about ¼” away from the knot. If you wish to hide the knot, pull the knot inside the heishi beads to hide it.
Mix up your colors, partners, polymer clay beads and accent acrylic beads for new looks and styles every time! There’s so many possibilities with these teeny tiny beads!

Hi Dawn,
Thanks so much for your question! Sizes can vary depending on each individual, but we would recommend approximately 5-1/2" for ages 2-5, 6" for ages 6-8, and 6-1/2" for ages 9-13.
We hope this is helpful, but please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have any other questions! Xo
