Memory Wire is made of steel.  It gets its name from the fact that it always remembers its shape.  You can string it with beads, crimp the ends, and have a flexible bracelet, necklace or ring that can easily be put on or taken off.  Make a bracelet with several rows (rings) of beads!

Bend this flexible steel wire back and forth with a pliers to cut it.  Don't use wire cutters, as they will be damaged. Use more industrial strength tools (roundnose pliers, wire cutters, chainnose pliers) with Memory Wire. Regular tools typically used in jewelry making and beadwork are not strong enough for the Memory Wire, and will get ruined.

Each one-ounce coil makes approximately 38 single bracelets, 18 single necklaces, or 150 single rings.

The wire diameter is approximately .023".

You can glue end caps to the end of the wire to finish them off instead of making loops.   Use either an epoxy or jewelers cement glues.   Don't use superglue.

Many people use the ring memory wire to make wine glass charms, instead of hoops.
