Broken Stretchy Cord Bracelet Repair Tips
August 19th, 2010 by admin
Many people own stretchy cord bracelets that have broken. Many of these bracelets have become the favorite go to bracelet for everyday wear.
Whether expensive or cheap, if you love your stretchy cord bracelet its worth having it repaired professionally. Several factors are taken into
consideration when determining the cost of your repair, time, complexity of design and replacement cost of missing beads.
One of the first things that will determine the price of your repair is the bead size. Working with tiny beads is a painstaking task that
requires time and fortitude. Larger beads on the other hand can be easier to arranged and string. Also the size of the hole in the bead can
determine how much time is required to repair a bracelet.
Many bracelets may look simple, but the design or pattern is complicated. The numbers of strands in a bracelet are also a factor. I have
repaired stretchy cord bracelets that are the standard single strand to multiple strands of beautiful beads. The repair of a multiple strand
bracelet requires the designer to actually reconstruct the bracelet before it has been dismantled any further to ensure that the finished
length is correct. If your bracelet has already broken into many pieces, your bracelet will need to be redesigned.
Also the cost of missing beads and other beading components are considered when determining the price of the repair. Missing beads will need to
be replaced with similar beads that harmonize with the natural beauty of the original design.
