Cut about 25 cm of elastic cord.
Thread the beads, alternating colors as you like. Here, the yellow beads are interspersed with a few orange beads to create contrast.
Check the fit around your wrist regularly.
Once the bracelet is finished, tie a surgeon’s knot.
Here, I chose to alternate yellow and orange beads, but feel free to create whatever combination you like! The most important thing is to tie a secure surgeon's knot so the bracelet is sturdy.
You can also add a small drop of glue to the knot for even more security.
