If you are you looking for a simple decor DIY that you can make quickly, I have the perfect DIY for you! Baby showers, weddings, birthday parties, graduation parties, you name it, this DIY would work great!
Supplies:
- Scissors
- String or Ribbon
- Wooden Beads
- Wooden Clips
- Photos
- Tape
How to:
This DIY is the same as making a simple necklace all you are doing is stringing the beads onto the ribbon or string.
First you want to pick out the photos you want to use. I had mine printed at walmart they have options for the square ones or normal sized photos both would work. Next pick out your beads you can do whatever color matches your party. If you are doing a graduation use their school colors, or if its a birthday party use your childs favorite colors.
For the string I just used normal white string, You can use ribbon or anything that will fit a bead on it. For a wedding you could switch it up and do lace ribbon, it would be really pretty. Cut your string to about 5 ft, you can do whatever length you want.
To make stringing the beads on the easiest, take a piece of tape and wrap it around the ends of the string or ribbon, this will make it stiffer and all of the strands will stay together. String on all of the beads onto the string. I think I ended up using about 50 beads for the 5 feet of string.
Take your Wooden clips and start prepping your photos by attaching them to the clips. There are lots of different types of clips in the craft stores these days so get ones that match your party.
Hang up your string of beads, I used tape to hang mine but you can use whatever you have on hand or in your home. I hung it up before putting on the photos because I wanted to make sure to arrange them in a way that looked good. You can move the beads to make room for each picture.
That’s it! You now have a beautiful decoration that EVERYONE WILL LOVE!
Happy Crafting!
