An easy memory wire bracelet that looks so lush! Collect a bunch of plastic leaves from a fake plant you don't mind denuding. Find some pretty beads and a coil of bracelet-size memory wire. Then follow these steps:
Using tough wire snippers (not delicate jewelry-making ones), cut a piece of memory wire long enough to go twice around your wrist. Turn a simple loop on one end of the memory wire.
Use a thumbtack or pushpin to poke a hole in a whole bunch of plastic leaves.
Thread alternating leaves and beads onto the memory wire until you like the fit. Try it on to decide on the right length.
Turn a final loop on the other end of the wire, and trim off the extra.
That's it! You can do more beads between leaves, or more leaves between beads...different combinations will result in very different looks - all of them adorable and cool.
