Quick Project Steps
Preparing the Cord and Beads: Select and test your beads with the cord. Cut and prepare four equal pieces of BeadTec Knotting Cord.
Starting the Bracelet: Begin by creating a knot and attaching a button or forming a slip knot for the clasp.
Adding Beads: Place the beads on the cord according to the design, ensuring they fit the cord's thickness.
Knotting Technique: Employ the herringbone knotting technique, starting with the topmost cord and alternating sides to create a symmetrical pattern.
Finishing Touches: Conclude the bracelet by tapering the end knots to mimic the beginning and secure any loose ends with a thread burner or lighter.

For my first purchase (3 month subscription box), I'm a little disappointed. The instructions are good and the videos (YouTube) are excellent. The beads are very pretty. Unfortunately, I did not receive enough beads to finish one of the projects. Some of the beads also had holes fused shut. I tried reaching out to customer support via the website and haven't heard back yet. I intend to keep trying their products because their designs are so pretty and the videos are so well done. Maybe I just got unlucky with my first project.
It was easy to find what I wanted. Very easy and secure.
