THE BEST SIDE OF HOW TO START A BEADED BRACELET

Just wondering if I’m including the crimp also early, if the crimp is too tiny, if it’s also sharp to the elastic, or if I basically tried out to the bracelet way too early (it hadn’t been 24 hours yet)… any strategies? I’ve manufactured 24 bracelets and want to make positive I’m not making a crucial mistake ahead of shifting ahead! Tha
