you wont be able to get sterling silver wire from michael's.... I think kittybaby mm usually use 28G for wire wrapping projects and using 20G for the thicker wire pieces (center pieces for wire wrap or shaping the ear wire)... but I think if you would like to do a lot of shaping, "dead soft" is probably a better idea. for most gemstones, they usually recommend a 26G or 28G for threading through the hole...

I had the same confusion, and found the prices are so different too. Please look at the following link. Anyone knows why? And does "Increment: 5 feet" means the total length of the wire? http://www.fusionbeads.com/shop/productchart/725/
the lower the gauge number, the thicker the wire, the more metal it is, the more expensive... so a 20G is more expensive than a 28G given the same length, because a 20G is thicker and weighs more... for increment of 5 feet, that price is $ per 5 feet. so if you place 2x the order, you will get a total of 10 feet...
Please means the total length of the wire?
