I am new to making wire jewelry, where can I get good wire. Local craft stores do not have good, durable wire?

Hello there,
Try Fire Mountain Gems. They handle all sorts of jewelry making supplies and they have been around for a long time. I started buying from them in the 70s

Later,
the best place to get “good” wire is in the hardware stores. I found in doing bead work that gauge 5 or 7 is the best. you can however use whatever one you want. most electrical sections have black, white, gold, silver, and even copper wires. I used to work in Sears and know that they carry them. the manufacturer was Hillman, but in all states it is different.
