Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?
Difficulty:
Category: Home & Garden
Type of item: Plant or Flower
For: Garden
Style: Whimsical, Retro / Vintage
Materials
old glass bottles, glass beads, wire and garden stakes
What was your inspiration?
I saw these at a craft show, they were rather costly so I decided to try and make my own
What are you most proud of?
I like mine better than the ones at the craft show. The longer they are in the garden the rustier the wire gets, the bugs look great with this aging.
What advice would you give someone starting this project?
When you attach the wire to the garden stake you don't need to be overly generous with the amount of wire you spin around the stake to create a spring like tube. The bottles aren't very heavy so they won't require a lot of wire.
