Friday Tip

Dear Constant Reader,

Happy Friday! After several miserably hot and humid days, I’m enjoying today’s very pleasant summer weather. I hope it’s nice where you are too.

Here’s your tip:

Use beading thread for beadwork.

I know that sounds obvious, but you would be surprised. 

No matter how smooth beads look, they’re still made of glass and a tiny nick or chip can cut right through regular sewing thread. Beading thread is made to resist that. In a pinch you can use dental floss. However, if you’re going to go through all the painstaking work of hand beading, I recommend using the right equipment.

My Patrons can learn more about beadwork by watching this tutorial.
