The other day, my sister was talking to me on gchat (I love that thing!), and we were talking about how great her wedding is going to be. You guys, she is DIYing the entire shabang. Right down to her wedding cake, even. I can hardly believe it. It's going to be the best. I hope she lets me post some pictures of it...Because, you'll totally be inspired.
Is that not the prettiest? The only issue was um...It was $140.00. Um, what? Seriously. So, I told her I'd make her one. So, I did. Here's proof (and a tutorial)!
First, I gathered all the supplies. It was rough getting all three items. I mean, I haven't crafted in forev.
But, luckily, I managed to get all three items. Gold wire, beads, and scissors. WHEW.
After that, I proceeded to step one...Then step two...Then, well, you get the point.
Step one: Cut wire about six inches long. Thread a bead on that bad boy and bend it over.
Step two: Twist!
Step three: Take one of the ends, thread on another bead, and bend it in half.
Step four: Twist!
Step five: Add another bead, fold over, twist...
Step six: repeat 'til your heart's content.
Step seven: Make a few more.
Step eight: Twist 'em together.
Step nine: Make a few more bigger ones (like the ones from step eight)
Step ten: Twist them all together.
TA-DA!
Finished. Of course, I could have added more beads and it would have looked even MORE similar to the original, but I ran out of beads, alright? Oh well, what's a girl to do?
Disclaimer: I have NO idea how to use my camera off of Auto. So, I'm sorry for the crappy pictures. I'll try harder next time! I also apologize for my hair up there. I just got a mom cut, and so it was hard getting that little guy to look cute in my hair.
