Eyeglass Cords

I am trying to make some cords / chains / necklaces that hold glasses. (you know, the chain that hangs around your neck that grips your glasses?) What are they called and where can I find them?

rubber. craft stores sell rubbere and then you'd need the little silver clamp
rubbernation.com sells cheap cord

I am looking to make my grandma a handbeaded eyeglasses cord...the kind that keep your glasses around your neck.

Any ideas or advice. Do i buy the little plastic loop ends or do i buy a cheap one and just take off the ends. any cute ideas??

Check out the eyeglass "leashes" on this page which also use beads or polymer clay, for some cute ideas too:

I know she'll love to have something like that, or several of them in different colors or styles!
