Stretchy Cord - our new best friend!

Okay, we had a love hate relationship with stretchy cord for over 10 years... We loved the stretchy and simplicity of wearing, but we hated the break-ability. We never found one that lasted LONG enough, that we felt comfortable putting AAA gemstones on, or even seed beads!

HAPPY NEWS!!! Now, we are importing a wonderful stretchy nylon in many many colors, and we love this! At only $6 for a LOT of yardage - you can go crazy and get a bunch of colors... and stretch away!

Come to one of our Make & Takes if you want to learn our tips and tricks of working with this!

Make lovely bracelets like this!! Check our "What's New" page to see more samples!

Apply this technique to other bits of chain and links you may have at home, turn a leftover bit into something you LOVE! As a bonus, we will also drill tiny holes into your hammered heart (to prevent your heart from turning over), and so that you can add a seamless and sophisticated finish to your piece! $55 Class fee includes silver links and use of tools.

THIS CLASS IS OPEN TO ALL LEVELS - no experience required! – and way more fun than a trip to the dentist! If you want beads with larger holes (as we ALWAYS do!!) then drill them out yourself. It's easy, painless and quick! $55 Class fee includes the bead reamer and you have the option to make a quick stretchy cord bracelet or sliding knot with the fruits of your labors!! We will choose beads in class, and we'll talk about the different drilling options, different tips and uses, and we'll give suggestions on the best beads to start with.
