Provided is a method for manufacturing a stretchable elastic member excellent in appearance and reduced in manufacturing cost by applying a first adhesive to an inner surface of a sheet at one side at predetermined intervals, applying a second adhesive to elongated resilient and elastic members at predetermined intervals, forming first application regions in which the first adhesive is applied and first non-application regions between the first application regions and the adjacent first application regions, forming second application regions in which the second adhesive is applied over a large number of the first application regions and second non-application regions between the second application regions and the adjacent second application regions, fixedly installing, on an inner surface of the sheet at the one side, the elongated resilient and elastic members and a sheet at the other side at the outer side of the elongated resilient and elastic members, and cutting the elongated resilient and elastic members in sections in which the first non-application regions and the second application regions oppose each other when seen from the above.
