i use elastic thread like this for making necklaces and bracelets. but it doesn't seem to stay tight when i knot it. i've used superglue before now to put a bit on the knot, but it makes any beads near it go a white colour.
is there anything else i can use to secure it? or perhaps there's a more secure knot or something?
am in the uk, btw...
