Frequently asked questions about the collection: threads & wires misc
Q: Hi - can you tell me which thread would be the best for general beading use and for knotting between beads. I've never beaded before and would like to have a go at necklaces and bracelets etc. Thanks
A: The thread you want might depend on the type of beads you want to use. Are you looking for something to use with chunky, handmade beads, or tiny machine made glass? Normally the rule is the bigger the bead the larger the hole, so for chunky beads you can use a chunky thread but beware beads with very small holes! I'd say silk thread www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/home/search.php?searchfor=silk is ideal to start with, it's thin, strong, easy to thread (the packs each come with their own needle attached), the knots look lovely and the silks come in a great range of colours. It's ideal to start knotting with.
Q: Hi, I would like to start creating things using 19 gauge wire - what does that relate to on your website?
A: Apparently 19 gauge is 0.9mm wide, we don't have any wire that size but we do have either 1mm or 0.8mm in various finishes like silver plate: www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silver-plated-wire/bo4196 or copper: www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Copper-wire/bo4195
Q: I have been asked to re-string a pearl necklace measuring 44inches what would be the most suitable thread, I have tried 4 thickness of nymo but the knotting slips through and also this stretches considerably.
A: The traditional way of re-stringing pearls is to use Silk thread because is really easy to knot and won't damage your pearls but it will stretch slightly over time. We have three thicknesses 0.5mm www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silk-thread-thin/bo4209 0.7mm www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silk-thread-medium/bo4217and 0.9mm www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silk-thread-thick/bo4218 depending on the hole size of your pearls. The silk is supplied in a 2 meter length and comes with a handy attached needle which makes it really easy to thread.
Q: What kind of wire can I use for making coil string beads or coil component?
A: I would recommend our 0.8 plated wire as you want it to hold is shape but still be quite malleable if your making larger coils I would use 1mm. We have metal based wire in several finishes and can be found at www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/wire-metal-based/c435.
Q: Which thread is suitable for fringing and tassels?
A: The most suitable thread would be our silk thread in medium www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silk-thread-medium/bo4217 or thick www.beadsunlimited.co.uk/Silk-thread-thick/bo4218. This might prove expensive though if your planning the make several items you might find some better results at your local haberdashery.
