"This is the best yet. I just hate adding new thread and with WildFire you can use much longer lenghts for your work which means less needle threading. I do lots of beadweaving and embroidery and don't know how I managed before. I recommend it to all my customers."

"I use this stuff when I'm needing a dark color theard. I love wildfire. Ihave used lots of other beading theard and am hooked on wildfire. It dosen't break when others do. I would recommend wildfire to anyone and have many times. My only wish is that it came in larger sizes as in more on the roll."

"This works very well for making wrap bracelets. No stretch at all. Wish it was a little cheaper in cost and it came in more colors."

"Wild Fire is my all time favorite beading thread. It's strong, easy to use and doesn't knot up easily. Unfortunately, the colors are really limited. I hope they'll decide to expand their range!"

Pros: Ease of Use, Quality
Cons: Price
Other beading styles or techniques: Wire work
Creation: Woven bracelet
"I made this bracelet first from some thread I had sitting around; nice sturdy thread. I thought! I finished the bracelet, after fighting to get it through the beads and breaking a few in the process, took it off the loom, and one of the warp threads broke. During the weaving, I'd had to fix the weaving thread several times.
So, I did some research, and came up with Beadalon WildFire. It's great! I loved working with it. It's strong, yet small enough and smooth enough to go through the eye of a regular beading needle, and so through fairly small seed beads the required number of times.
It knots easily, although definitely requires glue to hold, because it is so smooth.
The only problem I have with it so far is the price. It's a bit too expensive for me to be able to use it all the time. More colors would also be nice.
Other than than, I'm very pleased."

"I use this for weaving beads onto leather for double wrap bracelet. The thread is quite strong and although it does want to knot up, if you're careful you can avoid that even without using a wax on it. I would definitely recommend it when you need a strong threading material. To thick for some needles."

Better than Fireline
Date:August 7, 2010
Pros: Quality, Versatile, Ease of Use
Cons: Size, Color
"I like Wildfire much better for bead weaving and embroidery than Fireline or Nymo. Wildfire can't be pierced by the needle and does not stretch or become tattered no matter how many times it passes through the work.
With Wildfire, the finished piece has a better drape, and the thread holds tension much better than Fireline. The only thing I dislike is that it's not available in larger (cheaper) quantities, and that they put only 50 yards on a spool that could hold a lot more. I use it for kumihimo with small beads and could use a lot more on a spool. Other colors would be great, too."
