Wow 2012 already and this year will see a more extensive range of wires available.  I have expanded the Rose gold filled wire and will continue to do so, so that most gauges and shapes are available.  If you have any special requests just drop me a line!

I am trying out a new range of copper that includes silver plated and gold plated wire.  Some are available in square (a little different) and also some enamelled colours.   I have put all of these new coloured copper wire in their own category to keep things tidy and easy to find.  So have a look and see what you think :-)

I've just listed the new stock of 14K Gold Filled Wire that is now in pre-cut lengths.  I will eventually be changing all of my wire to pre-cut lengths as it allows me to keep my prices low and keeps things simple.  The discounts have been removed as they are already factored into the new price.  So if you buy a 5m piece of wire, it will be cheaper than buying 5 one metre pieces.  

Also due to the new low prices I've removed free shipping as I can't afford to have these low prices and pay for shipping!  If you have any suggestions, please feel free to drop me an email.  Happy Shopping!

10% Sterling Silver filled wire is now available!! 

I was never really happy with the 5% sterling silver that came out of India, it was fine in the smaller gauges but the heavier gauges started to see issues with the quality.  I'm a stickler for quality and only like the best, as I want my work to be the best it can be. 

This new Silver filled wire is 10% sterling silver filled from the US and I've given it a great go with the hammer and coiling and have not had any issues.  I was using 16ga, so I figure if I can try and do my worst to this wire and still see no flaking and get a brillant shine after it's been tumbled, it must be a great quality product.  So I've stocked up on all available shapes and sizes.  It's possible to make an entire ring (using square wire, wrapped in half round wire) for less than 1/2 the price of a solid sterling piece!

I'm also selling this wire in pre-cut lengths.  This helps keep my price down.  I'm selling most wire in 1m, 3m, 5m and a few 10m lengths.  So if you buy 2, 1m lengths, you get two pieces of wire each one 1m in length.  I know this is not how I sell my other wire, but there has been so much confusion that I'm changing tactics and starting to sell by the length.

I hope you enjoy this new wire, I was pleasantly surprised by how good it looks.

So this is the start of the spring cleaning!  I will not be selling rubber rings or jump rings any more.  There is nothing wrong with this stock, it is just too hard to compete with others and since this is an off shoot of what I really love, it's sad to see it go but we can always make our own!  This also means I can make room for more wire!

I've introduced a minimum order value so that I can offer lower prices.  So now there will be a $30 minimum order (plus postage) BUT my prices have dropped - some by more than 20%.
