Flower Wire Picture Stands



I am constantly receiving things in the mail that I believe are worthy of putting on display around the house. Items that are too pretty to puncture with a pin and too temporary to frame, such as a great art show flyer or a beautiful wedding invitation. For these flower wire picture stands I used 2 strands of 18 gauge stem wire each. By the way this stuff is great to have around in general for all kinds of projects.

The only tips I can share with you are the following….

Wire never bends back nicely so don’t be afraid to throw away a few oppsies
Draw out a template on paper first and bend wire along the path
Needle nose pliars are helpful for scabbing 2 pieces together
