"Hi, my name is Nicole and today we’re going to be going over the basics of wire wrapping and making jewelry, and the first tool that you will need, basically, is wire. My favorite kind is sterling silver, but you can also use gold if you like. And you want to get a round wire that’s half hard. You can get it at any local jewelry shop where they sell beads, basically. And this 22 grade. 24 grade is going to be smaller and more flimsy, but this is my favorite type. And you’ll also need twenty grade if you want to make clasps or any kind of finding. Basically, some sort of ring or that sort of thing. So basically, those are the types of wire and you can find them in feet or inches or however you like. "
