pearls for wedding.
June 13, 2009I was thinking about additional service when we make wedding bouquets, buttonieres, table & car decoration, & so on. How about initials for the bride and groom made from pearls or any other beats, either plastic, glass, or even little, ratan balls. Here are the steps...
...continue with stringing the beats or should I say wiring? ......we need a lot of pearls! Make sure you put enough beats on the wire to cover the whole letter shape. I used exactly 72 pearls for 56 cm long letter base (around 22inches)...
...now we can start with wrapping the line of pearls around the thick wire using the thinner wire...
...in this case, don't cut the wire. Just keep it on the wire ball and wrap it around...
...we wrap the wire in between each pearl attaching it to the letter base......continue to the end of the letter base...
...make sure the pearls are not moving and are attached to the base tide......next step is making the little loops for the ribbon that will hold the letter either to a chair were groom & bride will sit or where ever you want to attach it to. It looks good also on a wreath in a church or it can be added to any decoration used in the wedding. It is a nice touch to make the event even more personal. To make the loops more flat you can use also a hammer...
...now just slip the ribbon through the loops and we are done!!!...here are two versions how it can be wrapped around the chair. Each chair is different and you need to be creative:)...
I hope you enjoyed another one of my tutorials:) Have a great rest of the weekend:)
