re: the best thread, it depends on how heavy the beads are. Tigertail is strong (looks like wire) but is easily visible. Nylon thread isn't as strong but hides itself better. If its just a simple job of re threading & fitting a clasp, I am happy to have a look at it for you & see what I can do or could maybe send you enough thread so you can have a go without having to buy a reel of thread ??
