You Will Need (4 things)

  • Bead(s)
  • Wire Cutters
  • 70 in Jewelry Wire
  • Round Nose Pliers

Steps (9 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    Get your tools, wire, beads and tape measure together.

  2. 2

    Measure 70 inches/178cm of wire and cut it.

  3. 3

    Bend the wire in half and make a loop by twisting the wire. Twist it for about an inch, I use the tip of my thumb to the knuckle as a guide.

  4. 4

    Thread beads onto one of the wires

  5. 5

    Twist that wire back on itself so you have a branch about an inch long

  6. 6

    Then twist the wire for another inch and make a branch on the other side. Keep doing this for most of the length.

  7. 7

    Leave some wire at the other end to make another loop.

  8. 8

    Make the loop about an inch from your last branch and twist the wire back onto itself up to that branch

  9. 9

    Cut the wire ends off and make sure they are not sticking out. I flattened the loop a bit with some flat pliers too.
    now you have a hire vine to do with as you wish. As I have short hair I put some elastic on mine and use it as an alice band but sometimes put hair grips in it so I can put it in anyway I wish
