Suede comes from the underside of cow or deer hide that has been stripped of the hard skin layer to leave a napped surface. Suede is dyed and then cut into a flat cord. Because suede does not have the tough outer layer, it is softer and less durable than leather cording. Suede is generally used with large beads that have large holes.

Fold-over crimps are used to attach a clasp to suede cord.

Waxed cotton is a thick, tightly woven cotton cord that is lightly waxed for durability. Waxed cotton comes in several diameters and is good for stringing beads with holes that match the diameter of the cord.

Both foil crimps and fold-over crimps can be used to attach a clasp to waxed cotton cord.
