Those look awesome. I tried to make them and failed miserably!
What gage did you use for your wire? I went to Home Depot to get mine and used the wood hangers to attach, as I was a little scared the wire by itself would'nt hold. You did a great job!
Wow those look incredible!!! I'm trying to get FI to do these.
What gauge wire did you use?
I really wanted to try to make these but ran out of time. They look great!
I used 14 gauge wire. I got 12 gauge at first but it was way to hard to form the letters. Suprisingly the 14 gauge supports my girls dresses wonderfully, which is what I was concerned about the most.
They look great!!! I'm going to try to do this but I'm really worried it will not come out well lol
@Running Elley: One trick to things going easily is to use a hanger as your guide for the sizing. We also formed the names first, then the remainder of the hanger to ensure it was centered. Hope that helps
I am also planning on trying to do these. I hope mine come out half as nice as yours did.
I would LOVE to make these for my bridesmaids, and can't seem to find a decent instruction set anywhere...
Can anyone shoot me the instructions, or post them here for everyone to see? I feel like these would be a fantastic present, a fun weekend, and maybe would turn out beautifully!
Thanks for sharing!
I'm super impressed - great job! You should do a DIY tutorial!
@southerntransplant: Agreed! I'm trying to do them now, I got 18 gauge so I need to buy 14, but I'm worried about failing!
OMG how did you do that??! WOW that is great good job!
Wow they look so good! I've done one so far and I'm having trouble getting the rest of the names started lol. I used this link for directions

Wow, you ladies constantly amaze me. Whenever I think of doing stuff like this for myself, I just head over to etsy :)
These look great!! I am definitely going to try to make some for my ladies. My biggest concern though is forming the letters- any tips/hints?
these are really cool! i tried to make one myself, but it turned out AWFUL! congratulations!
