Beaded Jewelry Making….?
01 Mar 2009
If I use beads with thread hole 3mm…what size cord would I use and what is the best type. Leather, waxed…etc?
Here's some info about the types of cord used in beading:

For beads with a 3mm hole, there are several choices you could make, depending on how sharp the beads are. Make sure you don't use a cord that will fray easily if the beads have sharp edges. Choose leather, for example, instead.
