    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!

    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.

    @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!

    @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!

    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?
