| Beading elastic is a great way to make a simple bracelet without needing to work with wire, clasps or crimps. After you've threaded your beads on, simply
bring the two ends of the elastic together and tie off in the same manner in which you would tie off a balloon.
For a bit of extra security, add a dab of glue or clear nail polish at the knot. To hide the knot, slip a bead with a large hole over the top before you finish your bracelet.
