Stretch Ring photoDetermine circumference of your ring by loosely wrapping StretchMagic (don't cut, leave it on the spool) around the finger you will wear the ring on. Leave enough overlap so that you will have approximately 3" of extra cord on each end. Using a Sharpie or other marker, mark the beginning and ending points of where the cord meets on your finger.

String seed beads to cover the entire length of the cord needed for the ring, string a coordinating focal bead at the mid-point if desired. Cut StretchMagic so that there is approximately 3' of extra cord at either end of the ring. Tie the StretchMagic together, using 3-4 knots to secure. (I always test the knot by tugging gently before trimming the excess cord. Retie if needed.) Trim excess cord close to the knot using an embroidery scissors or nail clipper.

For a fun toe ring, use the same directions, just make the ring smaller to fit your toe! Ring will slide up and because you are using tiny seed beads, it will be very comfortable.
