Hi

I'm just starting to make jewellery with my daughter and wondered if anyone could recommend the best stretch elastic for bracelets. Some of the stuff that comes with kits is pretty naff.

Also, any good YouTube channels to follow with good beginner tutorials?

TIA

Hi, You can find some online - you are looking for 0.8mm Elastic string or Thread. It is just a bit thinner than the stuff you get in the packs. It is best to learn to attach the findings and add a clip to jewellery wire - go for 0.3 thickness. This will always last longer and is actually really easy!
