Tools needed
Supplies needed
Making the braceletStart with the 3 separate coils of memory wire. (Cut your wire into 3 equal portions, about 1 and 1/4 coils) Use the round nose pliers to coil a loop at the end of each wire. The wire is hard to coil, so you might want to practice on a spare piece first. Thread each wire into each hole of single 3-hole connector. Thread a single bead of the same colour onto each wire. (See below for the colours and the order.) Follow with a connector. Continue alternating beads and connectors until you have enough for a bracelet, or you run out of beads.

| Add your last connector, and coil the end of the wire into a tidy loop. The memory wire doesn't want to coil up nicely, so you have to use some muscle to get the loops. However, with a little practice, you can do it easily. |  |
Thread the beads in the following order for the optimum "rainbow" effect:
