What is a good wire to use for making plushies moveable like for a plush that is able to wrap around yourself?
Jewelry wire is a great wire to use when making a plush toy that you would like to have a lot of mobility. Widely available and very inexpensive, jewelry wire is a great option. Depending on how mobile you would like the plush to be, and how frequently it will be used, 18-20 gauge wire will be best. You can find jewelry wire at most craft stores and big box stores, it is sold on spools. You can use your fingers or pliers to bend the wire. You will want to use wire cutters to cut the wire. To prevent the ends of the wire from poking through the outer fabric of your plush toy, wrap the cut ends of the wire around pliers to make a loop. This will keep the wire from poking out, and give extra stability to paws or feet. Also, you can hand-stitch these loops in place to keep the wire from moving inside the plush. Add the wire before stuffing your toy, then carefully stuff around the wire. You will find this is easier if you have added some stitches to hold the wire in place first. If you plan to firmly stuff your toy, you may want to use more than one wire, or very firm wire. This would be very fun to do with a stuffed snake. Make a simple snake, add a wire through the center, then stuff. You can then wear the stuffed toy as an accessory by wrapping the snake around your wrist, ankle, or strap of your handbag.
Can galvanized steel wire be used for jewelry craft?
Yes, any wire can be used for jewelry craft. It all depends on the effect you want to have in your design. If you are going for fine jewelry, of course it would be better if you used silver wire. However, especially for trial beading, the less expensive wire will work just fine. I would suggest that you work carefully as steel wire is less flexible than beading wire and can "bite" you.
