This is just what I was looking for and you are the only one who is showing us how to make the form whereas every other tutorial tells us to buy the frame. Thank you for starting from scratch. I only wish your video was sharper in focus.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thanks so much for watching and your great comments. Sorry this is an older video and not the best quality. I should do another one.

[@susanroberts]

Isn’t Heather Boyd the best! I love her too! She’s taught me so much! 💝🥰🤗

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Easy & beautiful snowflake ornaments for the holidays. #DIY #christmas #giftideas #beads #crafting #decoration #holidays

[@annmadebyhand]

Thanks for this fun idea! I'm just exploring working with wire and beads - this was a perfect beginner project! Thank you.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You are very welcome!

[@JoansJunkJournalsAndMore]

Thank you Heather. I was thinking of making one along this line, but it was great to see it done first to confirm how ☺♥

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You are very welcome. I used to make these in craft workshops with kids and adults. I set them up and they would do the beading. I miss in person workshops!

[@susanroberts]

Oh Heather I love this snow flake. They’d look so pretty hanging in my window in my livingroom with all my snow people decor. I love how winter looks but I can’t get out there anymore so I hibernate and create my own winter scape indoors. 😹😹😹

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thanks Susan. I hope you are doing well, despite having to hibernate. Big hugs.

[@pattko7356]

Thank you for sharing how to make wire frame. I like the ability to make my own versus buying them at a craft store.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You are very welcome Pat.

[@lidiamcculley8933]

Very pretty! Thanks for the tutorial, very easy and fun! Greetings,

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thanks so much for watching and for your great feedback. 😍

[@AuntAb]

Love this one too!!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thanks so much!

[@makingiteasywithliz]

My suggestion is to start with a small bead first so it fills in the center better. Nice video.

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Great idea. Thanks Liz.

[@Justthefurofus]

I absolutely loved this!! I need to make some now!

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Awesome! Be sure to share pics of your creations!

Thank you very much I made the Christmas tree. and I wanted to show him. but I'm not very technological and I don't know. In any case, many thanks and blessings to you. God says that he who gives to the poor lends thanks to God.

[@micbyte]

I must have all thumbs as this is not holding for me. I love this ! I’ll keep trying. I’m very crafty just this is a challenge. What gauge for securing the 20 gauge ? Thx

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Hi Michelle. It does take practice to hold the wires in place. You can use 22 or 24 gauge wire to twist the 20g wire pieces together. Add them one by one. Good luck.

[@tatianagiacomini8084]

💯👏👏👏👏👏

[@HeatherBoydWire]

Thank you!

[@paulastrong7571]

Heather, what type of wire did you use. Thickness?

[@HeatherBoydWire]

You can use 20 gauge copper or aluminum wire with these.
