Tip for gluing stretch bracelet knots

Getting ready for a market tomorrow and just figured I'd share a tip that I've been doing for a few years. I used to hold the bracelets open in one hand, put a drop of glue on the knot and then just hold it for a minute. Problem with that is even using a fast drying super glue it took awhile to dry and it would end up sticking to the beads ????. Searching around my house for anything to make the process easier, I found a box of squeeze bottles I had ordered (I'm also a baker). It works perfectly, it not only stretches the bracelets which helps their longevity but I can glue over 10 at once. Then I just let them sit anywhere from a few hours till a whole day. I do a regular knot, a surgeons knot and one dab of superglue on 1mm stretch magic. I've never had one unravel or pop. Hope this is useful for someone, happy crafting ????.
