Tutorial: quick slinky bracelet

Hello all!! Today I thought I would share a super quick and inexpensive way to make a new piece of jewelry. I have always loved my "slinky bracelets" and they are an easy way to accessorize.

All you will need is:
 An amazing product called Memory Wire.  It is literally like a slinky and keeps its round shape. You can find Memory Wire at any craft store.
A pair of round nose pliers
A pair of heavy duty wire cutters (scissors will not cut this.)
Beads!

 



You take one end of the memory wire and you make a tiny loop with the pliers.



Then you take the other end and you string your beads. You can make this bracelet really chunky by adding beads to a lot of rings or just enough so it wraps around your wrist...up to you!


Once your bracelet it the desired "length" you leave yourself a fingernail's width of space and you cut off the rest. Don't forget to push all your beads towards the first loop you made.


Then you simply form a loop on the other side! That is it!



Super easy! I made this example in 12 minutes! Have fun! 

Thanks for looking. Love, Ms. Kate
