I am starting a new series of posts every Wednesday titled This into That. It will feature simple and easy projects that anyone can do! Here is your first installment of This into That.

This very cute memory wire bangle only has three elements and only takes 10 minutes or so to complete. How easy is that?

First you need your supplies:

Memory Wire – We carry silver, gold and bright copper for a package with 12 turns for $2.95. This bangle is 5 turns which leaves the rest of the package for further projects.

Jewelry Tubing – 5 yards come in a package and costs a mere $2.25. For this project you use maybe 2 feet of tubing so you have a lot to make more bangles.

Seed beads – For this bangle we used a mixed tube of colors, sizes and shapes which costs $7.40 but you use so few the tube can be used for many other projects.

Directions are simple. Cut the memory wire into the amount of turns you want to use, cut the jewelery tubing into different lengths and started threading on the tubing pieces and seed beads in any order! Quick, easy and inexpensive to make!
