Follow these simples steps to make your memory wire bracelet:
1. Using wire cutters, cut off about three full loops of your memory wire.
2. Next, using your round nose pliers and elbow grease, make a loop at one end of the coil you just cut off.
3. String your beads in any pattern you’d like. You may want to use a bead board to determine your design before you start stringing.
4. Repeat step 2 on the other end of the coil.
That’s it!
You can also use the steps above to make a memory wire necklace and ring. The only difference would be that you may not need as many loops cut. For a necklace I usually cut two full loops. For rings I usually cut three full loops. But, you may want to cut more or less, depending on how large you want the piece and the type of look you're trying to get with it.
