I found this on Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Sparkly-Colourful-Glitter-Thread-Kurtzy/dp/B01LZGZCG8/ref=sr_1_6?dchild=1&keywords=sparkly+yarn&qid=1597888658&sr=8-6But I never used this so I'm not too sure if this is good for bracelets. But hopefully this helps! 🙂 |

I use this sparkly string, it is only silver and gold, but it works pretty well. Pretty sturdy but still soft at the same time. My only issue is it is a tiny bit thinner than most floss. It doesn't show in the bracelets itself, but it is noticeable while you make them. It is not the super thin thread though.

I got a silver sparkly filament (like what is used in the alize yarn to make it sparkle) at Joanns in the thread section and you can add it in to any embroidery floss, yarn, craft cord, etc to make it sparkle. I hear that Claires_Wears_Spam on instagram has a tutorial on how to add it in but I have never seen/tried it to see how it works. Hope this helps🙂

@Macaron567 do you mind explaining it for me? I dont have instagram so I cannot see how to do it so I haven’t had the guts to do it yet.

@SC00PSAH0Y What I do is I take the string I’m using for the bracelet then cut the string to the desired length. After that, I take the sparkly filament and cut that the same length of the string I cut. Then, I tie two tiny knots with the sparkly filament on the two ends of the string and now it’s ready

I recommend using the summer nights glittery colour changing crochet thread it works perfect with normal embroidery thread.

@SC00PSAH0Y ugh I did it again, what I was saying was that I accidentally pressed send on my phone and didn’t finish what I was going to say. After that I just use as I use any other string. Hopefully that makes sense! 😄

@Macaron567 ok thats what I was thinking to do but I heard that Claire used a kumihimo disk to weave it in and i was wondering if that was more effective. Thanks anyways because now at least I know that what I was going to try works 🙂
