I’m always intrigued by different and unusual shapes of beads. So for today’s memory wire bracelet I decided to try using these long curved tube beads. Using them makes the bracelet much lighter than other multiple wrap projects.
Memory wire bracelets are nice to put together, most of the work is in the planning and then it’s just a simple matter of stringing.
I finished the ends of this memory wire bracelet differently than I have in the past using bead ends. Watch my Friday Findings-Memory Wire Bead Ends video for details.

- memory wire
- bead ends

Enjoy the video and happy creating!

Oh, the red/black/silver is a good mix. Very nicely done.
Glad you like it. It’s become another favorite to wear.
I just love the bracelet and the way you explain everything. Can I find memory wire ends at Michaels ?
Hi Joyce,
I’m so glad you like my instructions and the bracelet. I’ve been enjoying wearing it!
The only place I’ve found bead ends/memory wire ends is online. I give a link in the blog post to a favorite online bead store, Fire Mountain Gems. That’s where I got the assortment I showed in last week’s Friday Findings-Memory Wire Ends video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRLrYpOiBbM.
Happy creating!
