Craft Wire - 1.2mm - 10 metres - Icy Silver

This wire is ideal for making jewelry, home decor, and various craft projects, especially where ease of shaping and a soft feel are desired.

Due to its softness and 1.2mm thickness, it's best suited for decorative and artistic applications rather than structural support that requires significant strength.

It can be easily shaped by hand. For cutting, standard wire cutters are recommended. Pliers can be helpful for making tighter bends or holding pieces.

Each spool contains 10 metres of craft wire.

The soft plastic coating is designed to be finger-friendly and comfortable to work with. It should be durable for typical craft use, but can be scratched by sharp objects or rough handling.

While the wire has an 'Icy Silver' color, painting directly over the plastic coating may be challenging and could peel. It's recommended to use it as is or incorporate it with other colored elements in your craft.

The diameter of the wire is 1.2mm.

Ensure you are using the correct section of the wire. While generally soft, some points might be slightly stiffer. Try using pliers for more leverage if hand-bending is too difficult.

This is unlikely with this soft wire. Ensure you are not over-bending or repeatedly bending the same small section, which can fatigue any wire. Check if the wire has been damaged during transit.

Ensure your wire cutters are sharp and suitable for cutting plastic-coated wire. Dull cutters can result in a rough edge. Try a cleaner cutting motion.

Handle the wire gently to avoid scratching the coating. If minor damage occurs, it may still be usable for less visible parts of a project. For critical areas, consider using a new piece of wire.
