Looking for an elastic bracelet...

Bit of a weird one.

I've never got on with bracelets, rarely wearing them for the whole day let alone longer. But recently I came across a hoop of elastic which I twist around my wrist twice, and I've been wearing it every day, without it feeling clunky or annoying, even when it gets wet washing my hands or in the shower.

(it's the elastic that goes around a box of Gail's pastries - classy as heck).

So I'm on the lookout for a bona fide bracelet which is literally just a hoop of nice looking elastic, maybe with a few tiny seed-beads in it, that I can just loop around my wrist and wear all the time.

Monica Vinader (which is the nearest thing I've found so far) friendship bracelets have dangly bits to allow them to be adjustable, and I don't want dangly bits, just a nice hoop of elastic which is a genuine bracelet, rather than a random bit of elastic.

If you happen to know of anywhere to look (I've tried Etsy, but I could be missing something) - that'd be great.

Have you got a picture of your DIY one?

Ah good plan @TableNiner - obv, I'd like to get rid of the knot situation.

But a similar diametre, no knot (some sort of clasp rather than dangly bits) plus or minus some tiny seed beads would be perfect.

Ps, It looks shittier in the photo than in real life. In real life it just looks averagely shitty. But it's the comfort level in trying to replicate.

I suppose once it's comfortable you could cut the dangly bits off?

THANK YOU! @claray and @AccidentallyOnPurpose you know what, the last one (Pandora on Amazon) is very very close to what I'd like.

And I'd never considered Pandora jewellery for me (their standard stuff is not to my taste) so I'd never have looked!

I'll have a poke around the Pandora site.
