Different Types of Stringing Material
There are various types of material required in making jewelry, and choosing the right kind for you is crucial. One of the most important materials is the string, if it is for a necklace, bracelet, or anklet you want to make. Selecting the right stringing materials is a total must. When choosing the best string for your jewelry, you’ve got to consider the type of jewelry you need to create, the style and design you want to achieve, and the type and size of the beads you will use. Some of the most common stringing materials for you to select from are : Bead Stringing Wire, Illusion Cord/Monofilament, Elastic wire, Nylon Thread, Silk Thread, Leather Cord, and Memory Wire.
Bead stringing wire, is one of the most popular stringing material in jewelry making. This wire is composed of chrome steel wires inside a nylon coating to prevent tarnishing. Soft Flex, Accu-Flex, and Beadalon are the main brands of bead stringing wire. Before using wire you will need to find out how to crimp and other techniques as well as jewelry making tools and their correct use and upkeep.
Before buying wire, you should consider the adaptability you’ll need for your design. The bigger the number of strands, the more flexible the wire would be. For instance, a 7 strand wire has some flexibility, a nineteen strand wire is more flexible, and a 49 strand is the most flexible. If you’re attempting to find extremely stiff wire, choose Tiger Tail wire. This sort of wire isn’t as flexible as other beading wire. Beading wire also varies in diameter. Wires having a diameter of 0.13 or 0.14 are for light-weight beads like seed beads and small pearls, while wires with a diameter of 0.16 or 0.18 are for bigger beads.
Elastic rope, a flexible, stretchable twine commonly use in making informal type of jewelry. In using an elastic wire, you don’t have to worry about needing any findings to close off a jewelry piece. The end of this wire can be knotted or blended together. One of the common brands of elastic cords available in the market is Stretch Magic.
Nylon thread is the modern alternative option to silk. Unlike silk, nylon doesn’t fray nor stretch as much as natural silk. And nylon is more favored today compared to silk. Main brands of nylon treads are Griffin and C-lon. These brands are available in a wide range of colors, sizes, and spool lengths.
Silk, this is frequently use in traditional way of stringing beads. This kind of string is ideal when stringing valuable pearls where you have to do knot in between the pearls. Silk is easier to knot than any other thread because it is soft. However , silk frays and stretched when used over 3-5 years. The main types of silk are Gudebrod and Griffin. If you want to string pearls sizes of string like Griffin size five or 6, and Gudebrod size E are highly commended. Silk is not good for heavy beads.
Leather cords, this sort of cord along with simulated suede are extremely popular when creating a rustic look and this cord is often use to string heavier pendants because it has more strength and high durability. Suede could be tied in knot and worn with a pendant. In suede necklace, you can use coil or leather crimps in finishing off. Simulated suede is more favored compared to leather cord as it is softer and it’s compatible to more consistent dye colors.
Memory wire, this is a coil which has extremely strong tempered stainless steel wire. If you want to make quick and simple necklaces and bracelets, this is certainly what you will be using. This can stay on your neck or wrist without a clasp. In finishing off a memory wire, simply make a loop at the end of the wire or you can glue a capping bead at the end of the wire. Don’t use side cutters in cutting memory wire ; just use hardware shop wire cutters. Just don’t forget to shield your eyes when cutting this wire.
Now, if you’re still looking for other alternative stringing materials you can use in your jewelry making, these are some other stringing materials : satin wire, hemp thread, ribbon, black rubber wire, waxed linen, and rattail. As with most things, all of your supplies can be found online at numerous internet stores. One of the most popular is eBay where you can find all you stringing materials, clasps as well as anything more you want. Most jewelry uses some variety of beads so use eBay to find cheap beads.
