Cut a 66 inch piece of cord and an 18 inch piece of cord. 2. Fold the long piece in half and tape it down. Tape the short piece on top. 3. About 4-5 inches from the top, place another piece of tape.

Create an adjustable closure by overlapping the tails, securing with tape, and using a 12 inch piece of cord to create another square knot. 8. Cut excess from the closure, seal with clear polish. 9. Tie knots on the end of each tail (this secures the adjustable closure in place). Music : "Budding" - Broke For Free (https://soundcloud.com/broke-for-free/broke-for-free-budding)
