Hey everyone. The on screen text that appears at 27:26 was inadvertantly shifted on the timeline when I edited the video at the last minute. The reference to the "8mm beads" is for the blue swirl beads I used in the middle coil. Sorry about that. 😊
I recommend this product. Cuts the time and allows you to be creative without having to constantly load and unload the beads.
Yes the bracelet made me look forward to spring even more, I'm ready for a little warmth as well. ALABAMA USA
I absolutely love my coil buddy! If I’m not making a memory wire bracelet, I still use the rods, they make my projects so much easier. Your bracelet is so beachy. One of my favorite color ways is blue and green. Thanks for this tutorial Luisa and I hope more people see how helpful the coil buddy is, I honestly love mine!
This is beautiful. I'm so grateful for all you've taught me. I'm going to send you a picture of the snowflakes I made for gifts this Christmas. Everyone loved them. Thank you!
I’ve used my Coil Buddy to make several memory wire bracelets. I never thought I could make bracelets so easily that look so nice. Thank you so much!!
Love my Coil Buddy. Thank you for inventing it. I use it all the time.
I just love your design. I have been inspired by you as my favorite designer for the last 2 years. Just just love you. And for all of you out there I wanted to let you know that I myself purchased the bead buddy and now I would not make a memory wire bracelet with out it. It part of my everyday tool box. Give it a try. Thanks for sharing
I have to laugh as I use my coil buddy and magic rods every day to design necklaces... and still haven't made a memory wire bracelet with them! Lol. Those are some very versatile and useful tools you've invented. Thank you 😊
Thank you so much for this video. I make a lot of bracelets with memory wire and I love them. No measurements, no clasps. They also make great gifts. Thank you for the new ideas.
I do the same starting loop like you.
You really help me. I did not realize that it is better to cut your wire after you have loaded all your beads.
I love my Coil Buddy!
It turned out beautifully. I love blue and green together. You make it look so easy! 💙💙💚💚😍😍 Thank you, Luisa! 🙌🙌
Hi Luisa! 🌞 You know something, I've never tried memory wire but I'm going to now. It's fast especially with the coil buddy and of course your amazing Rods! I hesitated using memory wire because it looked like it might be a bit difficult. My poor credit card just moaned lol But in for a penny as they say. So Luisa, thank you so much for all the hard work you do in helping us design and for your warmth especially! You take care dear Lady 🦋🦋🦋
Absolutely beautiful!
Thank you for the great creative inspiration Luisa! I have followed you for some time now but, have never commented. Sorry about that. 😂🥰. Love this design. I am also ready for warmer weather ☺️!! Keep up the beautiful design work!! Love you.
Very beautiful bracelet I love it. The colors are beautiful together ❤ Thanks for sharing 😊
Omg I've decided to make the memory wire bracelets for gifts for family members for gifts. Your tool that u made is amazing. I'm new to making jewelry with memory wire and I didn't know that they had different sizes for strength to hold beads on them. I did think that they probably would because of the weight of the size of beads and type of stone. Thanks so very much. I've learned soooooooo much from you. I'm so very greatful that you share your talents and beautiful jewelry creations with me.
Another lovely design, Luisa. I love that color pallet. I was just thinking that along with being beachy, what a pretty Spring bracelet this would make -- and then you said the same thing! Great minds, right? Thanks for sharing.
Your bead box creation is a clever!! Idea there needs to be one in every where they sell beads!
I just got my Coil Buddy! I can’t wait to use it. Thank you for creating it.
I don’t believe it I purchased your coil buddy in. 2021 . When I watched this video it hit me. So I went and opened the box and yes it was from you so excited. My son coveted the box it came in leather . I’ve never used it but now. ❤I will .
Oh wow! You bought it 2 years ago! 😂 Better late than never! 🙂
Great bracelet 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩💖💖💖💖
I love the metal rods and stoppers
Love it! 💖 Definitely reminds me of the ocean, beach and warm weather. 🐚🐙🦈🐳🌞 Thank you for sharing. 😊🌹
Love the colors.
So pretty very cool coil buddy, this was the first time I ever saw this.
Very pretty. I haven't made a memory wire bracelet in a long time either. I guess I should think about that! I am ready for the beach.
Love love love the coil buddy and the rods. I use them all the time!
Thanks for this. ♥ I haven’t used the wire that came in the box I ordered because I wasn’t sure about it. Once again, you’ve taught me something. Hope you have a great weekend.
Lovely! 💝🙏💝for you hands!
Sooo pretty! As I knew it would be! I’ve never made a memory wire bracelet. I think I need to try one! Also, need to look into purchasing your products! I’ve been ‘eyeing’ those rods for a little while anyway! Thanks for another great tutorial!

Luisa, thank you for the lovely videos. Your music is relaxing and inviting. I alway enjoy your choices. This bracelet turned out so pretty. I’m inspired to make one with my Curated box too. For some reason, I learned a lot more about your rods and coil buddy from this video. I just started using my set (which I’ve had for awhile) and I’m going to order more rods since I like to start & stop projects. The rods are really useful. Having a place to store them with the coil buddy when not in use is a bit challenging. Any ideas will be welcomed. Also, please tell me where to buy the bead caps, especially the filigree ones. Thanks!
It’s been a while. I bought the rods and I love them.
I love the style you make. Thank you for sharing it. Beautiful bracelet ❤️
How lovely! The colors are perfect! Thank you so much!
WOW, Luisa! I'm new to your channel & fairly new to jewelry making, in general...so I didn't even know such a handy tool existed. THANK YOU for making us newbies aware of it...I'll definitely be putting your Coil Buddy on my wish list! Oh, and the bracelet is lovely, as your creations always are! 😍
I love the beginning, I can't wait for summer to get here, lovely bracelet. I love the coil buddy, you can actually make a focal point on your memory wire and fill in with beads around it
Thank you! Yes it’s gorgeous love the colors. I’ve struggled with those types of bracelets in the past ,you’ve inspired me to make one and also get a tropical drink! Cheers 🤗
I love my coil buddy .
Thank you, Luisa! The bracelet is lovely. I’m still waiting for my box.
I love my coil buddy...
I love, love, love tho coil buddy!! I use it for everything. And I do need to order the 12 inch rods. And I love this month's curated box! And love your bracelet too!
Beautiful bracelet, thank you for the tutorial!
Love the bracelet and the colors
Thank you for the great video and beading lesson. I just bought one of your Coil Buddy; and I'm so excited to give it a try. I have some ideas of what I want to make and can't wait to get started on them. Thank you again! 😊💖🙏
Thank you so much! And thank you for buying Coil Buddy! 😊
Beautiful bracelet Luisa! 😍
I love mine…they are great.
I love mine…thank you!
So very pretty.
Great tutorial , thank you ,good tips , congratulations
Thanks so much for this tutorial - I'm going to try to make this one 🙂
This is really pretty, tfs hugs
I love mine.
I can't wait to make this bracelet. Um not sure if I want to give away as a gift or keep it for myself 🤪😄
Love how this bracelet turned out. Since I have the coil buddy and rods I think it’s time to work on a few memory bracelets myself. Also really liked the music in this video. Can you share the name of the song with us?
Beautiful!!!!
By the way, it appears youve put in free materials for your product(s). Watching you put that together is incredible as far as the time you put in. amazing ;) you do an awesome job for practically giving the coil buddies away.
Made it 😍love it☺️Thanks 🙏🏽
Really enjoyed this video! I’m going to send for the Coil Buddy and rods! I’m really excited! I can see how much easier it is to use these to make bracelets! You explained this so well! I’m waiting for my first box of Curated beads in these colors! Your coil buddy and rods make it so much easier and takes the guess work out of the number of beads used! So beautiful and thank you for telling us the number of beads too!❤️🙏😀
So pretty! You and the bracelet! I love those colors...now I'm wondering where I put my memory wire since I now have your magic rods.
❤it
I had a quick question on the memory wire. I may have missed what you said but do you buy a size? I've seen them in small, med. and large in the craft stores.

Luisa, I do love this bracelet. I need to order the coil buddy. I have the rods already and love them. Can you let me know what the price of the guide would be.
Hi Nadine. Sorry for the late response. Please email me at luisa@mistymoondesigns.com. If you already have the rods, I can definitely send you the guide at a much lower cost. Email me. 🥰
Hi there! I purchased the coil buddy and absolutely love it! I have used up all my memory wire and I can’t find memory wire that is 20 gauge, like the wire that comes with the coil buddy. Can you put a link to where I can purchase it? I have only found 22 to 24 gauge and they do not hold up well for medium to large beads. Do you sell 20 gauge in your Etsy Shop?
Hi Tonya. It’s been difficult lately due to supply chain problems. I’m actually waiting on a shipment. Please email me luisa@mistymoondesigns.com or message me through Etsy. The link is in the description 🙂
what's some good memory wire to buy? also,do we have to go to Etsy to buy Coil Buddy &/or rods?
Hi. Good question. If you’re doing a simple 3 coil bracelet, you can use any gauge from .6mm to 1.0mm. But if you’re trying to line up patterns across multiple coils to form a focal section, it’s better to use .8mm thickness. Even then, it’s tricky because there are other variables that can affect alignment. You can find the thicker gauge in my Etsy store but I carry very small limited amounts. The thinner gauges are easily found on Amazon. And yes, the Coil Buddy/rods are only sold in my Etsy store. The link is in the description section of this video 🙂🌺🌼🌸
@@MistyMoonDesigns Ty,Luisa..the problem on my last one was the weight of my beads (i think), it was wire from the findings kit & I assumed I needed high quality wire to keep its form, but I have little experience/knowledge. I had very few larger beads but it felt heavier than others id made in the past. sorry for my typing, my keyboard is screwed up
thank you so much for your help!! Ill get thicker wire :)
Lisa is the memory wire you sell on your etsy shop a thick wire
Hi Shelley. It’s pretty thick. It’s .8mm or 20 gauge. I have limited inventory though. 🙂🌺🌼🌸
@@MistyMoonDesigns Thank you
