Ask the Experts Beading Q&A

I recently emailed you a question on what size beading bracelet thread should be when using 8mm beads. I am inquiring again. Thank you.

Thank you for reaching out. To answer your question, this depends on the technique you will be using to either sew or string your bracelet. If you are stitching them together, consider 6lb Fireline® or size D thread. If you are stringing, consider using either 0.19 or 0.24 49-strand Accu-Flex®.
