(2 pack) Cousin DIY Coated Copper Wire, Gold Finish, 22 Ga, 32 ft Roll

I haven't been Wire Wrapping very long, so when I try a new technique, I like to practise on a wire that's not going to hurt if I ruin it. Sorry if that sounds crass, but this is not Sterling Silver or an expensive top brand. Even that sounds snooty! DIY Cousins is a craft brand with a lot of versatility. Flexible, yet doesn't work harden too quickly. You can use it for wrapping costume jewelry, but it does tend to oxidize quickly, if handled too frequently. That's why I use it to practice using new techniques. Costume Jewelrys' new, trending term is "Temporary Jewelry". I'm not saying don't use this. All Costume Jewelry is temporary because its' finish will wear off or tarnish quicker than most and I am not a Metalsmith, working in Sterling Silver or Fine Gold. Just we females tend to wear the heck out things we love, and this has a shortened life span in long term, daily wear. Stay away from pools, (Chlorine), showering and perfumes, as they ruin the temporary tarnish resistant finish, more quickly. Remember, this wire makes things you wear occasionally, clean carefully after wear and Re box it until you take the new made treasure out again for a brag session in public or out on the town!

I buy these all the time! When you're making jewelry you need all the sizes so it's good to buy them all and these are such a good price so you will love this wire!!!

I needed to repair a lovely, rustic wind chime that unfortunately couldn't stand up to the recent monsoon winds of Tucson. It was constructed with nylon thread that just broke apart. Luckily I had all the pieces and restrung them using this wire. Easy to use and so much stronger. Looks as good as new and will last much longer.

It is good quality thank you

Perfect for projects and crafts, very durable.

My grandson and I use this type of wire for a lot of crafts! It is the right size to work with! Easy to handle!!

Item is as expected. I used it for a craft with my children and worked great. If I need this again, I would rebuy this wire.

Great price for the amount of wire, but I originally ordered 20 gauge and the 22 ended up being too small and too soft for my work. However I'm sure I will find something else to use it on.

Would definitely recommend

The only reason I gave it 3 stars is because it's a lot darker color than I expected. It's more stainless steel colored instead of silver
