i have used beads that i bought for something else and have used 4mm and 5mm on mine
CommentAuthorLinzi-jo
4mm ones are very small, I used both 8mm and 4 mm on my ones, there's a pic of them in my album called DIY if you want to see xxx

you get a pair of pliers and straighten the bend out put your beads on and then bend it back round :-)

bay of e is the best place for them you can get them from a few pounds for 100 and the charms are resonable on there too

I love this idea and have been thinking about it for ages. I'm now off work as I'm a teacher so I have the time to make them. Just a question for you though......Are you making them for all of you wedding breakfast guests, or just the wedding party?

i brought mine just for the main attendants and grandparents. I have wine charms and I found little hearts too which go on their place settings with their role too but I admit this is probably overkill but I loved them. I think you can make them yourself... they are ivory ceramic with the role hand written on in glittery glue and a hole punched in the top with a ribbon threaded through so they can be hung somewhere.
