Step 6Stringing them up
Now it is pretty straight forward from here,
You cut the string longer than you need, loop the ends through the clasps that you are using and attach a small metal clip that keeps the wire from moving. Tighten that down with pliers and it should hold. You can use a needle to facilitate the stringing but I don't. You may also notice that I used two clasps for my bracelet, I do this because I wear a medical alert tag and like to attach that to my beaded creations.
A Special Tip: Use the stretchy cord for bracelet. Since I am always using my hands my bracelets tend to move around and get torn up more than a necklace would which has lead many of my pieces to break or fall apart. Using the stretchy cord solves this problem beautifully and makes it easier to take on and off.
