Review on 🧡 Nymo Nylon Seed Bead Thread Size B (72 Yards Each, 10 Bobbins) 0.008 inch (0.203mm), Mixed Colors by Jennifer Roberts

Revainrating 5 out of 5

good color choice for my purposes, the thread is strong and flexible

I bought this for making wrap bracelets, although I will be using it for many beading projects as well (some I've started on already). I have several different colored faux suede strips that are in this kit and I bought the kit so I would have the correct thread to wrap the "suede" and thread it through the beads that I use in the bracelets have. I find it strong enough for my purposes. I have to say that the bracelets I have made (and will continue to make) are not worn often and do not usually get wet. I sit in the office all day, they are treated gently there. So I didn't subject it to harsh conditions. I'm more used to working with size 0 and 00 threads, but I found that I could thread needles (sorry I don't know the size as I have a large collection of them stuck in the needle case which is the original packaging long lost) with this under a magnifying glass (have lit is screwed to the work surface). I was also able to use this with twisted wire needles with no problem. It worked great with beads. I usually prefer size 10-11 beads, although sometimes I use a size 8 to change the texture. It's good for multiple passes through anything. I don't usually treat my thread with beeswax (or whatever) no matter what the cost. I've found it's been flexible for bead pieces so far, so it's good for fringes and anything that needs to hang loose. This particular set has a lot of colors I haven't had before (most of the ones I've had have been dark, dark colors, gem tones, etc.). So I'm happy to have a less visible or obvious thread in future beading projects. Anyway, I wanted a lot of Nimo shades and I got this, so I'm happy. (I don't need big spools, these spools are the perfect size.)

Pros
  • Consistent results when tested
Cons
  • fades
