I love how you look into the camera when you talk, it’s something many people forget about doing, and it really helps to connect, and the information was great too ! You’ve gained a new subscriber down here in NZ 👍🙂

[@debramadden780]

Thank you so much Kelly always love watching your videos and seeing the beautiful jewelry you make.

[@lisahudson2366]

Kelly, you are a doll! And such a good teacher. Great video for us early learners. Your accent takes me home, too. Keep up the great work!

[@doloreskeesey6617]

I've been string beading for a few years now. I've been putting off using stretch cord. So I tried it today using the Stretch Magic youtube tutorial. The knot just wouldn't hold. I figured there must be some other options out there. I came across YOUR youtube tutorial. Thank you very much! You saved me. YOUR knot didn't fall apart! Thanks again!

[@vetalverson7401]

Dang, are you tying like she does? Hope mine works, wish she was still here

[@jasminepetal3972]

Do a surgeons knot ×2 and a surgeon knot is which can be done in 2 ways imo 1 over hand knot then the next knot wrap the cord twice and then pull tight that equals 1 surgeon knot then do it again so you have 2 surgeon knots... and alittle glue and let it set for atleast 20 hrs

[@jasminepetal3972]

Literally what she did lol

[@rosaelinav8036]

Thank you sooooo much Kelly I always wanted to know the differences!!! Thank you again!! Blessed to you and family 💎🙋💎

[@inezwong5654]

Thankyou so much!! I was having so much trouble trying to get a 1mm stretch cord to stay tight!!❤

[@emarieflowers6068]

THANK YOU!!!! You explained the difference between the stretch cords. I have subscribed because of that! Thanks again.

[@GG17250]

Love your videos!! Thank you so much for making them. I’m a newbie beader and have no one to show me the way..thank you for being that person! 🙏🙂

[@ddlfspaff3097]

This was such a fantastic tutorial. I learned so much and am looking forward to putting these principles into practice.

[@arlindajones-abekasis5665]

Thanks Kelly, I love all of your videos!

[@maryzylema9699]

Thank you for this tutorial. I use the stretch magic a lot and was not sure if it was good. Glad to hear it is and that is a lovely bracelet and necklace design. 🤗💖

[@virgomoonchild6302]

Very inspiring video! Thank you for your shortcuts on making a stretchy bead bracelet ❤❤

[@sgolash]

Thanks Kelly!.. In all my years of beading I have never tried stretch cord. l think I 'll give it a try.

[@sandyj3945]

Thank you for breaking the knot technique in a way where I can understand! New subscriber!!!

[@simonedennis8022]

Wow! Beautiful work ❤️ Those are really nice. Thanks for sharing 😊

[@chrisbruno4027]

Thank you for explaining about the different size cords. As a beginner I did not understand about filling the beads hole. I made a few bracelets with stretch cord and they seemed to have too much cord showing when they were done and I couldn't figure out why. Now after watching your video I believe it's because I'm not using the correct size cord. Most videos do not explain enough about the cord and that is important information. Thank you, again.

Beautiful bracelets thank you for explaining how to tie the ends correctly.

[@tinavelasquez398]

I love the earrings you are wearing in the episode. Absolutely gorgeous

[@francheskahamilton1953]

Thanks for the video. It's very informative. Two thumbs up.

[@karenpresley7101]

I'm new to your channel and like the little I've seen of it. I've been doing beadwork on and off for the last 20 or so years. My experience though is limited to mostly brick, peyote, herringbone, gourd stitches. I've done a lot of Native American projects for friend to wear as part of their regalia. I'm just beginning to want to branch out in other directions and feel encouraged with watching some of your videos. Thank you. :)

[@beckyj5875]

I love those beads especially the green ones.

[@micheleragosin3953]

Thank you for your easy to understand videos. I really appreciate the clear instructions. Also love your accent!

I(ve just started to make jewelry,and this tutorial w the stretch magic really helped.. What u just did with the stretch cord I just added to my book of learning new things. It helped me to understand in simple terms about how to adjust the length ,and tying it all together. Thank u so much, I look forward to learning more new ideas.

Wow thanks for really breaking that knotting prices down. Have watched about a dozen videos that either lie about how to tie them or just don't explain thoroughly. This is actually so simple and easy to remember. Thanks!

[@Shilpakala]

[@sheryldelaney4804]

Those beads are beautiful.

[@ladawnaanderson2773]

Too Funny! I was just thinking about asking this very same question, as I got some stretch magic free from a friend and did not know if it was good to use.. Thanks for the info!

[@sherryrogers7750]

Thank you honey I really needed that!

[@marybethfields1166]

I actually might get this thing to knot properly 😯 different style knot just came undone on something I did with stretch magic, so hopefully this new knot will stay.

Do u know if the .7mm opelon (double stranded) can fit through a 1mm hole of a 8mm gemstone bead????
A previous video I saw mentioned double stringing is best for heavier beads. And another thing about opelon is that big eye needles are a bit sharp and can shred the opelon so it's best to be careful and aware of that

[@LindaAffton68]

Thank You

[@farraway-sy8og]

Thank you💚🖤♥️

[@joybwillett]

Thank you! You present the information clearly.
Love your videos. BTW, what is the name of the song at the beginning of your video. My mind is blank. Need a song to go with a child's video. ❤️

[@benettaperry5165]

[@nanajodi201]

I used to always put the tiniest dab of superglue gel on my stretch cord nots, but I think I'll try your method and see how it goes for me. Thanks for the info. And I love those new flower beads - very cute. Do you have any other designs in store for them?

[@Shilpakala]

[@wendyroope-vestigecreation9775]

[@whitewolf2076]

where you get these Beads I love them

[@khaledmessai9442]

Wonderful video very informative. My concern is bracelet I made for a friend continued to stretch and stretch until it was too big for her.

[@Teresa-K]

Try pre-stretching before stringing beads. It lessens stretching later.

[@eidysoza3973]

Hi had a question it is my fist time making a bracelet I’m using a 7mm like pearl beads, now I’m wondering what type and size off string do you recommend me to use? TIA

[@franclark467]

can you send a link for the new beads you showed in this video. I didn't see them on your site. thank you.

[@SP-ig3vs]

What do you think about powercord?

[@lylawilliams3772]

Do stretch magic work well with seed beeds?

[@Jen_1031]

I'm a crafter myself. Haven't picked up bead working in awhile. I have to take apart a hematite bracelet & restring it with extra beads. I've used stretch magic in the past, I was considering the 1 mm for my project. I was curious what size string you'd recommend for industrial beads like that ?. I need it to endure frequent stretching because I'll be making it without clasps of any kind. Thanks in advance if this can be answered.
