Memory wire bracelet

I made some memory wire bracelets here's how

You will need; memory wire, beads, round nose pliers

First i made a loop at one end, using my round nose pliers, i wrapped it round about 3 - 4 times. This will stop any beads falling off when threading them on.

I then started threading the beads on, do this in any design you like, pushing them down to the bottom where you made the loop, Continue to add the beads until you reach about 2 inches from the end of the wire. Next using your round nose pliers make a loop and wind it around until all the wire is coiled and the beads secured.

This is the finished bracelet and it took me just over 10 minutes to make, they also make great candle decorations, go on have a go its really easy!!

These are my finished creations, 3 memory wire bracelets, and a cluster bracelet, the cluster one will be my next tutorial.

Rayley Crafts

Hello and welcome to Rayley crafts,

Firstly here is a little story to how I came up with the name, My father Ray passed away this year on the 23rd June so i wanted to pay tribute to him, i miss him very much and this will be my first christmas without him and I have found the past few months that crafting has really helped  me during this difficult time.


My name is Beverley so i took my fathers name and the end of my name and came up with the name Rayley Crafts, I hope you like it as much as I do.

I am a crafter who loves to make anything and everything and here on my blog i will be sharing all my idea's and designs for everything i make.

I first started out crafting with knitting and over the past few years it has now developed into
Knitting, Crochet, Cross stitch, Cardmaking, Jewellery making and scrapbooking.

I have recently invested in a sewing machine as well got to admit i am a bit scared of it at the moment but i will make it my resolution to learn how to sew using my sewing machine.

In the new year i will be creating my own etsy store where you can purchase the items i have made, i will also be showing the items as i make them so that you can see the designs in progress and the story and the thinking behind the design.

Thank you for visiting my blog and I hope you will visit again soon X
