Hi,
I've been working with the memory wire I got on Ebay, and, though I haven't had too much time to turn out much, these are the last 3 necklaces I have made.
Pet wood, Hawk eye and Pet wood:

Wish my camera gave better close ups

They are nice.

So this memory wire stuff, you don't need to put a clasp on it then since it holds it's round shape, is that right? Cher

They look real nice on the picture even if the pictures aren't zoomed. But things like this are always nicer in person. No picture can do them justice. Not even a close up

I really think that middle one looks cool. I can just see a hint of glassy ocean blue....nice color. thanks for posting, Gaeter

Thanks all,
One necklace has a bead glued to the ends, one has loops and one has a clasp I made. Looks like this

This memory wire is a little tighter than I would like, so a clasp opens the necklace up more. Just started gettin in some beads I got on Ebay. Life is crazy right now, but beading soothes the soul.
