Here are just a few of our favorite ways to use Waxed Cord...
- Secure sliders in place on leather bracelets. Just wrap, tie, and melt the edges.
- Decorate leather bracelets by wrapping and weaving - try adding small beads or charms. Mix colors of waxed cord to make fun patterns!
- Stringing and knotting beads - you don't need to use a needle. The cord stays stiff and straight, making it easy and quick to work with.

- Handsewing belts, bracelets, and other leather crafts
Each spool contains 64m/70 yards (210 feet) of waxed polyester cord. Our waxed jewellery cord is made in the USA and comes wrapped around a sturdy cardboard tube. The proprietary wax coating is easy to work with, and doesn't become sticky or flaky.
