Prepare Memory Wire: Cut the memory wire to the desired number of loops based on wrist size, using memory wire cutters to avoid damage.
Design Selection: Choose a design pattern for your bracelet, whether it's a single bracelet with mixed materials or separate bracelets for each material type.
Bend the Ends: Curl one end of the memory wire to prevent beads from slipping off, using round nose pliers to create a small, closed loop.
Add Beads and Charms: String beads onto the wire in your chosen pattern, pushing them down towards the looped end. Optionally, add charms with head pins for additional decoration.
Finalize the Design: Once all beads are added, curl the other end of the wire to secure the design. If desired, add more charms for a personalized touch.
Wear Your Creation: Enjoy wearing your memory wire bracelet, which can be easily put on and taken off by coiling around the wrist.
