Wire with memory for ornaments

Not so long ago, on the shelves of handicraft shops, a wire with memory appeared. It is designed to create unique ornaments that require a rigid and stable foundation.

Wire Features

In fact, a mysterious wire with memory for bracelets and necklaces is a usual steel wire, processed in such a way that it keeps its curls in conditions of physical impact on it.

Of course, it is not difficult to bend it with the help of a special tool, but it is important in bijouterie that it remains stable in conditions of everyday use.

The diameter of the curls on the wire depends on its purpose. For bracelets, it has a small diameter, enough to put it on his hand, but for a necklace it is much larger, otherwise it will squeeze the neck.

A memorial wire is sold in the curls. For one product, one to dozen such curls are needed. As a rule, 3-6 turns of this wire are used for the bracelet. Therefore, needlewomen buy large volumes of this basis for jewelry.

If you understand how to use wire with memory in the process of creating jewelry, you can easily and inexpensively update your collection of accessories. In addition, it's so simple that even a child can cope with work.

Simple bracelet of beads on a wire with memory

For work we need 5-6 curls of wire, multi-colored beads and round pliers. Cut off the required amount of workpiece. At one end we make a loop. It will protect the beads from slipping off the base.

Then we begin to string the beads. The algorithm of this work can be any. Either we create a pattern, or we make an arbitrary ornament, which is obtained from mixing several colors of beads. When the work is completed, at the second end of the wire we make the same ring with the help of round-bends. The bracelet is ready for use.

He puts his hand on one arm, as if winding. Such ornament adheres without additional fixation.

On a wire it is possible to string not only beads, but also beads of different diameter. Combining them, you can get quite an interesting effect. The main thing is to experiment and create the most unusual ornaments.

Another trick: in the eyelets that are made at the ends, you can hang any suspensions. In their role well serve simple beads of longer length on the jewelry nail. You can buy an original suspender from the furniture store and decorate it with a bracelet.

Bracelet-pigtail

But this is not the only way how a wire with memory for bracelets is used. A beautiful ornament is obtained if it is cut into 9 pieces and weave a braid out of them.

For work we need 9 turns and small pieces of wire, beads or beads, tools for work.

We cut the wire into 9 parts in one turn or slightly more. At one end of each billet we make loops and pass through them a small piece of wire, which is also bounded by loops at both ends.

On the pieces of wire string the beads and fix it with a loop at the opposite end. Next, we take the workpiece 3 and begin to braid the pigtail. When we reach the edge, through the eyelets let the second wire cut off and fix it with loops at both ends.

In such a simple way, the wire with memory turned into an exquisite bracelet, which will suit both everyday dresses and evening gowns.

Unusual earrings of wire with memory

This base is also ideal for creating beautiful round earrings. For work we will prepare 2 coils of wire, hooks for earrings, beads or beads, tools.

We cut off the wire and make a loop at one end. Then we start to collect the earring. Here you can experiment, depending on what kind of beads you have. This is an excellent field for creativity.

When the first earring is ready, we close it with the help of eyelets and connect the two ends together. After that we make the same earring. After. As both blanks are made, we catch hooks for earrings to them and we can put them on.

This is the simplest option. If you like to experiment, then you can take on one earring not one curl, but two or three. Or do or make ornaments not from a whole coil, and from a small segment. But at the same time the edges of the wire do not come together, but remain freely hanging, creating beautiful arcs.

Here is such a diverse and versatile wire with memory. If it is used, there will never be problems with new ornaments.
