Electives: Bead Stringing

There is an art and skill to stringing beads on cord.   First, of course, is the selection of beads for a design, and the selection of the appropriate stringing material.   Then is the selection of a clasp or closure, appropriate to the design and use of the piece.  This continues with choosing the strategy for stringing beads with cord, including choices about knotting, braiding, using multiple strands and a single tie-off, multiple strands with multiple tie-offs.
