Pack of 250 elastic silver cords from Hipo designed for making bracelets and other beaded jewellery. Each strand is flexible and suitable for creating stretch bracelets, repairing existing jewellery, or constructing multi-strand designs. The neutral silver appearance integrates with a range of bead colours and materials, while the large quantity in the pack supports multiple projects or batch production for hobbyists and small-scale makers.
Advantages
The elastic silver cords offer consistent diameter and elasticity across strands, simplifying stringing and knotting. Their silver finish provides a discreet, versatile base that complements glass, metal, stone, and plastic beads. Supplied in a bulk pack of 250 pieces, the set reduces the need for frequent reordering and is useful for repetitive tasks such as workshop classes or producing multiple bracelets at once.

How to use
Measure the elastic cord to the desired length, allowing extra for tying secure knots. Thread beads onto the cord, keeping tension even to maintain bracelet shape. Secure ends with well-tied knots; for additional security, apply a small drop of jewellery glue to the knot and trim excess. For multiple-strand pieces, align and knot strands consistently or use a crimp cover or bead to conceal joins.
Usage recommendations
Store cords away from direct sunlight and excessive heat to preserve elasticity. Test a short length for knot strength and stretch recovery before assembling expensive beads. Use appropriate needle sizes or bead awls to aid threading thicker beads, and consider adding a clear adhesive to knots for long-lasting wear.
