Great instructions for all beaders. Enjoy picking up great ideas to make the bead project more enjoyable. 🌹💟🌹
Huh...less is more. I love this bracelet and am not a memory wire bracelet fan. I've always tried to complicate them. Thank you!
Memory wire lends itself to larger bracelets like this and I think there's a tendency we all have as designers to look at a big canvas and want to fill it with all sorts of patterns and textures. Totally natural, but not always necessary!
@@beadaholique yes. This is simple and elegant. Not busy and overwhelming! Thank you.
This bracelet is so pretty! I will definitely be making a bracelet like this.
We're loving bead mix projects like this these days, we've got a few more videos in this style coming up over the next week or so
Very pretty. Thank you for sharing Kat 😉👍❤️
Thanks Sue, we've got more memory wire projects coming later this week so keep an eye out!
Great job - Loved the finished product. Would also liked to have seen a larger bead or charm put on the ends. Thanks for sharing!
Glad you liked this project! We've got an older video of ours that demonstrates adding charms to the end loops, it can such a great way to add a finishing touch: beadaholique.com/products/how-to-make-a-memory-wire-bracelet-with-tweedy-beads
The colors are beautiful. I once made a memory bracelet with similar colors and add some beige pearls.
Ooh that's a nice idea, some lush beige or rich cream colored pearls would play really well against the warm translucent seed beads
Love this especially easy as a gift for a friend.
Absolutely, little projects like this make such great gifts. Glad you like it :)
Muy bonita! Puede parecer muy simple, pero para quienes apenas estamos iniciando este trabajo, son consejos muy buenos. Gracias.
We love making videos for people who are just starting to learn. Thanks for watching!
Absolutely beautiful, I've got Katayama 11.0 seed beads in a sort of translucent purple lined and garnet ones ,plus metallic mix, like rainbow hemetite so will try this one, made even a bracelet from saucer spacer beads that looks cool too I've only at one time used seed beads as spacers, and in my collages, great idea for memory wire.❤️👍🌺🏵️🌹
Seeds beads as spacers are fun. We'll often use flatter demi-rounds as spacers with our stitched beadwork, but with larger projects like these memory wire bracelets stand rounds work nicely
@@beadaholique just finished my 7 coil memory wire bracelet with a mix,, first two rounds in plain garnet then metallic multi mix blue greens gold light and dark purple and bronze ,then end in plain garnet, no loop, but if you have UV resin it's stronger than super glue I think I used a top drilled Czech flower bead on the ends with an a acrilic 8 mm butterfly that I attached before the flower bead that's the bottom one the top I'm leaving as is,. No dangle,,!! It looks realy beautiful.❤️👍🌺🏵️🌹
Hello I just got some memory wire this morning in the post but found out that it was bigger than the standard necklace memory wire, as when I ordered it it said for bracelets,now I'm not sure how I can make bracelets from this necklace memory wire, please any ideas are welcome,is it possible to make tight enough bracelets from memory wire that's for necklaces? As I can't find anything helpful on you tube thank you🌻🌺🌹🏵️💐
@@angelabarton2551 Hey Angela, sorry I don't know of any methods for making a bracelet out of necklace sized memory wire. I'd suggest returning it if you can, I think you'd get far far better results working with the right size. If you bought the memory from us at Beadaholique go ahead and reach out to our customer service team by e-mailing service@beadaholique.com and they'll help you get a return started
Queda hermosa 🌷🍃y fácil de elaborar,saludos desde Uruguay 🇺🇾
Thanks Marina, glad to have you watching!
Very sweet! Blessings.
Thanks Bev!
Very nice 😍
Thanks!
Can you tell me more ways to close the bracelet other than loops? Is there wire caps or wire end beads incan glue on to the ends. Thanks in advance.
Yes, there are glue-in ends that you can use. beadaholique.com/products/how-to-use-memory-wire-glue-in-ends You can also use Finial beads as well. beadaholique.com/collections/czech-beads?_=pf&pf_t_shape_name=0-Shape-Name%3AHalf-Drilled%20Finial If any other questions come up, please feel free to ask.
Just beautiful!! I love the idea of being able to dress it up for date night, or dress it down w/a pair of jeans!!! Also, would you mind telling me what gauge wire you used for this? TIA!
We used this 22 gauge memory wire: beadaholique.com/products/bright-gold-color-bracelet-memory-wire-12-loops
What size wire would I need for an 8 inch wrist?
I'd recommend this oval shaped 2.75 inch diameter memory wire (That works out to around an 8.5 inch circumference), it'll give you space to add a variety of beads: beadaholique.com/products/beadalon-oval-bracelet-size-memory-wire-gold-plated-steel-23-loops-35-oz
Beautiful! This collection is just gorgeous. Sadly, it's already out of stock.
Sorry about that, we're putting in a new order for them, if you like you can sign up to be notified when we have more in stock. In the meantime here's the other new 6/0 mixes we just brought in, any of these could be great for a similar project: beadaholique.com/collections/new-czech-glass-bead-mixes?_=pf&pf_t_size=0-Size%3A6%2F0
What would you charge for this? Just wondering how much they're worth. 🤔
Pricing depends a lot on where you're selling it and who're selling it to, so it can vary lot.. But there are a few rules of thumb. For simple projects like this lot people will take the cost of the their materials and then multiply that by 2 or 3. You can see the materials we used here.: beadaholique.com/collections/beading-projects/products/royal-topaz-memory-wire-bracelet
If you have a size 7.5 wrist how do these fit?
We recommend using the technique Kat demonstrates at 4:51.
We also have larger memory wire, 2.5 inches, that will be a little more comfortable for larger wrists: beadaholique.com/search?type=product&q=2.5%20memory%20wire&_=pf&pf_st_availability=true&pf_t_product_type=0-Product-Type%3AMemory%20Wire
Thanks for watching!
Beautiful!! I love memory wire bracelets! Can the 2.25 diameter size fit a 7in to 7.5in wrist?
The inner circumference of the wire loop is almost 7 inches exactly, so once you account for beads it may be a bit too small
@@beadaholique Thank you!! So I can use the 2.5 diameter instead?
@@jrenee8752 Yes the 2.5 should be a good fit with some extra space let over for beads, try one of these: beadaholique.com/collections/wire?_=pf&pf_t_style=0-Style%3AMemory%20Wire&pf_t_size=0-Size%3A2.50%20Inch
Can it be any size seed beads.?
Yes, this 22 gauge memory wire is a good fit for smaller seed beads like 11/0s or 15/0s
