Spring is here with the sparkle and shine of flowers, new shades of green on the ground and on trees, and the chirping of birds in the morning. We are planning to add our own spring sparkle by making memory wire bracelets. These are made with a wire that coils like a Slinky toy to create multiple bangles. Beads and charms are used to decorate the wire.
While the program we’re hosting on this craft is full, the library has some jewelry-making options for you to try at home. For more ideas on DIY jewelry making, check out these library resources. You can also explore CreativeBug, which is our database on arts and crafts activities. You can view tons of creative jewelry ideas with instructional videos, on everything from wire-wrapping to beading to leathercrafts, and more are added monthly! You will need your library card and pin (your birthdate in MMDDYYYY format) to use this database.
