    Hey there! Sorry I haven't been to your blog in a while! I don't have much time to read as many blogs as I did before my internship started.

    This is so pretty! Your creativity inspires me :)

    I am a complete beginner here -- could you tell me what gauge wire you used?

      I used a 12 gauge wire. I would tend to use a thicker wire. I bought mine at wal-mart in the craft section. I hope this helps.
