Spring is the best time in a Fairy Garden! The flowers are blooming, the birds are singing, the garden is growing! And fairies love growing things! Here’s a fun way to add a touch of spring to your garden with this spring bud wire tree! Chose whatever color bead you want for your blossoms to customize the tree to match your garden!
Difficulty level: Moderate
Time required: 15 minutes
Things you’ll need:
Brown wire
Pony beads
Wire cutters
Things to do:
1. Cut the wire into fairly equal lengths, a little more than twice as long as you want your tree.
2. Thread a bead (or two) to the center point on each piece of wire and fold the wire in half, twisting to secure the bead in place. Twist the rest of the wire about 3/4 of the way down the doubled wire.
3. Start twisting the wires together, about an inch up from the cut ends, wrapping first three together then wrapping additional wires around to build up the trunk.
4. Splay out the bead ended branches and the cut end roots” and shape to create a tree.
