Hi is anyone making the wine glass charms instead of the placecards, how easy was it? i was thinking of doing them but i have seen so many beads on the net i dont know which ones to buy, could anyone help me please. xx
CommentAuthorMrsKisywisy
they are fairly simple to make. would you be buying the metal rings and then buying the tiny beads to thread through?? the bay have lots. i could put a few links on your wall. as you only have 7 weeks left, they'd need to be uk sellers

I am planning on making mine too I have seen loads on ebay. But any tips would be very handy as I need to make 100! I may rope in the BM's for some help! xxx

I have just made 100 of my own nic86! Didn't actually take that long, I did them whilst watching telly, I still have another 60 to do though! lol Mine are pearl beads with a heart charm though so I have not used the letter beads, but you will need long nosed pliers otherwise the beads wont go on them due to the little bent end where they clasp together xxx

could anyone recommend a good seller for the letter beads and normal beads please as im going to make them for my place cards, thank you for all of your replys x
CommentAuthorMrsKisywisy
i think you should do a search for uk based sellers on the bay, topcat. check their feedback, which will give you a good idea as to how reliable they are and if the quality are good :)

The people I have bought my peral beads from have been really lovely and really quick. One sent me the wrong colour and when I messaged her to tell her she told me she would send me the right colour and to keep the others as a gift as it was her mistake! Would you like the links to them or is it different beads you are after? xx

Hi linzi-jo , could i have the link please, thank you for your comments x
CommentAuthorClareS
I saw these on the bay. i priced up buying all the stuff individually and then got in touch with one of the suppliers who was advertising them already made. I gave them a list of how many I wanted and asked if he did discount. He was offering a 25% off which beat my estimation of doing it all myself (also means I wont have to do all the faffy stuff lol) In the end I've gone for alternative place settings but I was seriously considering getting these as well x

I bought 100 hoops for about £2 and several bags of the metal lettered beads for a further couple of pounds & the love heart charms saying made with love for about £3. Havent put everything together yet, but def cheaper than paying someone to do them. I havent spent more than £10 for everything, i ordered from hongkong/ china & had no problems these were also the cheapedt stockists.

Ah I was just having a nose on the Bay to consider doing this too! :) Brilly & Linzi-jo yours look lovely! :)
How large are your hoops? I'm watching a seller who has 100 35x40mm hoops for £2 or so at the moment, but she also has smaller ones....
Was thinking of having a paper crane (we're making a lot of stuff out of paper) as the central "charm" to act as a placecard. H2b's mum is an artist & has the most gorgeous handwriting so we could ask if she'd mind writing peoples initials on the wings in silver :) Xx

(This pic is very zoomed in, they're small enough to fit on the wine glass base and stay out the way lol)
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
Mine were 29mm x 25mm Eco freak, but it depends on how many beads etc you want to put on them as they bulk them out. I love the idea of the paper cranes! They look beautiful! Wish I was patient enough to do stuff like that! lol xxx
