Karla Schafer, Aunties Beads Designer
Instructions: - View the video on "How to end Memory Wire" for a quick how to on the end caps!
- Cut the memory wire to desired number of coils, I have cut my piece with one complete coil in the middle and two overlapping ends of about two inches, using memory wire shears.
- Add one memory wire end cap to one end of the memory wire, securing it carefully with the Zap-a-Gap as in the video, let it dry completely before adding your beads.
- The only pattern I included was as follows, color and wire bead shape is at random: Wire cone, 10mm glass pearl, wire bead, 4x6mm rondelle, wire bead, 10mm round Chinese Crystal and so on until I have come close to the end of the bracelet. End with another wire bead cone.
- Allowing enough room to grasp the wire and still have access to the end, glue on the remaining memory wire end cap. Hold until set and set the piece aside so that the glue can completely cure, a couple of hours!
