Product Description
Product Description
Satin Rattail - Rainbow brings multiple colors together in one smooth nylon cord, giving jewelry, beading, costume, and hanging projects an eye-catching multicolor foundation. Instead of choosing a single-color stringing material, crafters can make the rainbow cord part of the finished design, letting its changing colors show between beads, knots, and decorative components. Each roll contains 144 yards of 2 mm nylon rattail, providing plenty of material for individual creations and group craft programs.
Let the Cord Bring the Color
Rainbow rattail adds color before you add a single bead or embellishment. Its multicolor appearance makes exposed sections of cord visually interesting, so jewelry makers can intentionally leave spaces between components instead of covering the entire strand.
The rainbow coloring also gives crafters freedom when choosing coordinating materials. Match individual bead colors to shades found in the cord, mix in assorted rainbow beads for an all-over multicolor look, or use neutral components that allow the cord itself to provide most of the color.
Beyond jewelry making, the nylon rattail can be incorporated into costume crafts, beading projects, decorative hanging projects, and other activities that call for colorful cord. The 2 mm thickness gives it a noticeable presence when the cord remains exposed as part of the design.
With 144 yards on one roll, teachers, counselors, activity directors, and program leaders can cut the cord into project-length sections for multiple participants while keeping additional material available for future creative activities.
Creative Ways to Use Rainbow Satin Rattail
- String colorful beads to create necklaces, bracelets, beaded accessories, and personalized jewelry with a multicolor foundation
- Leave sections of rainbow cord exposed between beads so the changing colors become part of the finished pattern
- Incorporate the cord into costume crafts, hanging decorations, decorative accents, and other creative projects that benefit from visible color
- Combine with alphabet beads and assorted components for names, friendship pieces, messages, camp keepsakes, and one-of-a-kind designs
Teacher Tip
Make the rainbow cord the inspiration for a color-matching challenge. Have participants identify colors they see along their section of rattail, then select beads that match or contrast with those shades. They can create repeating patterns, arrange colors in their own sequence, or deliberately leave portions of cord visible to compare how the same material produces different finished designs.

This Rainbow Satin Rattail Is Great For
- Schools: Bring color exploration into jewelry and beading activities. Students can match bead colors to the cord, experiment with patterns, create personalized pieces, and use the finished projects as wearable art
- After-School Programs: Give kids a stringing material that already looks decorative before they begin. Use it for necklaces, bracelets, beaded accessories, hanging projects, and open-ended creative stations
- Camps: Add extra color to classic camp jewelry and keepsake projects. Campers can make friendship pieces, name designs, beaded accessories, colorful decorations, and projects to trade or bring home
- Recreation Centers: Keep one versatile multicolor cord ready for a variety of group activities. Move between jewelry making, beading, costume crafts, and decorative projects without limiting participants to one cord color
- Senior Centers: Create colorful accessories and decorative projects without relying entirely on beads for visual interest. The rainbow cord can remain visible and contribute color throughout the finished design
- Kids at Home: Start with a rainbow and build a completely personalized project around it. Add favorite beads, letters, decorative components, and patterns to make jewelry, hanging crafts, and handmade gifts
Tips for Best Results
- Check bead and component openings before beginning to make sure they are compatible with the 2 mm cord
- Plan where the rattail will remain visible if you want the rainbow coloring to become an intentional part of the finished design
- Cut project lengths with enough additional cord at the ends for the tying, knotting, or finishing method being used
