Well as I stated in my last post, I was going to attempt to make a gem tree! Well I have and I must say for my first ever attempt I surprised even myself. Surprised my partner as well as he saw it and told me it was "cute". he has not claimed it as his!
I actually found that it was quite easy to make once you got started! I found my supplies at "Spotlight", one of my many beading shops. They have everything you could need. When walking around the many isles your mind wonders and you can come up with many a project!
Well for this Gem Tree I decided to use 24 gauge wire.. as I found the 20 gauge wire to hard to work with!
I guess the whole project took me around 3 hours to make, but seeing this was my first ever attempt of designing a tree from wire I took my time!
Once I had formed the tree's shape oh my... how excited I became. :)
Now I must say that I used a tutorial on how to make a beaded gem tree which I will add a link to at the bottom of this post! This tutorial was easy to follow and had step by step instructions and clear picture that you could follow! So really I could not go wrong!
I think I plan to make a few more of these in the next few days. I read somewhere when crawling through many pages of information on how to make a Gem tree, that once you make one.. you want to make more.. well they were right! One is not enough!
Well please see below for my photo of my finished Gem Tree and feel free to check out the link also!
Cheers Bloggers! XXX
