Questions & Answers

Other than the reviewer who stated that the color of the smudged fireline came off, has anyone else noticed the fading or rubbing off of the fireline?

It seems that the color does not bleed onto beads, but it comes off on my fingers.

What if I want to use this thread with seed beads 11/0?

Yes, it is. When I use the, I use It is OO6. As well as Delica 11/0s, it works well for Toho models also. I love the beads and charms that Fusion Beads offers A thread sizing chart is available here.

This thread is very thick. Is it possible to knot it Are there any ways to replicate the knots found in ?

It will not be the case for all threads. Fireline is used to weave beads and I knot after I finish. Pearls are commonly strung with Fireline, but I doubt that it will produce the desired effect. The knots between pearls are often visible, so Fireline may not create a flat C- would be my choice It depends on your preference S- or Lon You will need an appropriate length of thread depending on its thickness.

Selected User Reviews For Beadsmith Fireline Braided Bead Thread, 6-Pound, 50 Yards (Smoke Grey)

The strongest and most The first time I've bought this product was a few months ago
4/5

In the past, I have purchased a similar product, but for a design I am working on, I was curious about Fireline Crystal Beading thread. Seeing as this item will be used frequently and moved around, I wanted to choose a beading thread that would withstand constant wear and tear. Having read the reviews for Fireline products, I decided to give them a shot. As of now I have only used it for approx. 3 square inches of finely beaded design, and it appears to be working well. There have been no visible differences, and the design does not show it at all. It is important that I use various sizes of beads in the design so that it has depth, and I noticed that (when I started the design with my normal beading thread) the thread was visible when changing the size of the bead, but not a lot. As I have used this Crystal Beading Thread, I cannot see any signs While I work on the design (which will be 12" X 48"), I will edit this review to reflect any changes.

This is exactly what I need! It is the perfect item for stringing Swarvorski beads onto crocheted ornament covers that I finally broke down and bought it
5/5

Since I have a disability, I was able to thread much easier after ordering the big eye needles. A few moments later I came across this item and decided to try it. I love it! Beads on my necklace sparkle right through to the center.

This is great, but it is very expensive
4/5

For me to utilize in beadweaving and jewelry making, this is the best product. Unless you want to pay a lot, this may not be for you. You are taking it too far. Amazon usually has a smaller selection, but not all the time. Secondly, I prefer to eat 6 lbs. The Amazon price is only 6lb, despite the fact that it is 015mm. I still think it will work with a diameter of 008mm. I found that there are other brands similar to Fireline, but they break easily and are not the type of stuff I like.

It is best to use fireline for beads Getting things done! Since years ago, I have used Fireline crystal and smoke colors in various sizes and colors
5/5

My beadwork has been done using wire and string of all kinds, but nothing compares to the craftsmanship of wire and string. It is my pleasure to do all types of beading, including bead-set There are two types of weaving weaving with beads and embroidery with beads. My pendants are often strung with Fireline to create chains. I even string the beads for the chains using it. You shouldn't be afraid to spend a little bit more. It will be possible for me to wear my jewelry for a long time.

Beads look great on this
5/5

Making use of the smoke. I used the size 11 Delica beading for 006 beads. The bead still has plenty of room so you can go through it It is very durable and lasts for a long time The product is strong, I would buy it.

It's usually a really awesome order, but that last one didn't work out
4/5

The only line I will use will be beading line! In response to the low-quality last roll I ordered, I have taken a star off the rating. It is the first time this has happened to me, but I was attempting to add one row of crystals to a seed bed cuff bracelet and the string broke five, yes five, times. bracelets and this is the 9th and the last row that I made as the string snapped each time I weave the crystal into the bracelet. During the process, I didn't do anything differently, the beads were all the same. Here I am, pulling the string to tighten the bead and snap it into place. A new string was woven into the old one after that. The frustration is unbearable. I hope it was just a bad roll, so I can update it after I finish my next beading project and bring it back.

An almost invisible material! An almost unbreakable material! Doing so is Fireline's task
5/5

Not at all. The break ends. You may not even be able to take It can be cut by some cutters, but not by others. The necklace made of Fireline will have a swing to it that one cannot get from cable, no matter how thin the cables are. In this stage, I'm only using cable if there are weight or sharpness issues, such as very heavy beads or hand-cut glass beads that will be moving around It is almost invisible, with the exception of the red, although it blends very well with the rest of the piece. The rope isn't tangly, either, but bear in mind if it knots, then it will be difficult to untangle. There may be times, however, when the immovable knot is just what you want.
Especially recommended for households with multiple children It is used as a strand necklace. Before you create anything with it, try to use the tool a bit.

This is the best bead thread I've ever used
5/5

Don't let this one pass you by. The product is wonderful. I have used the clear type (shows more like white) and the black type. It was filled with The lightest weight I have used is 4lb, followed by 6lb and 8lb Weight 10 lbs. It's the same with all of them. We used 4 lbs for the project in which we used I was able to pass through the tiny holes more than once. I used it to make it look like the beads were floating on a black Halloween bead bracelet. The product has been tried by others as well We ended up restarting the project with fireline. We added a little grip and wax to it Hold on. If you are working on a small bead project, this is perfect for you. There is no need to worry about disappointment.
