A few things completed (PIP)

I was able to get a few things completed over the weekend since the weather was bad and football was on all weekday.  I figured I would plop myself in front of the tv, watch the games, and get some crafts done.  I was able to finish the tags for our favors (candy apples) and started with the place cards.  I also finished quite a few hangers for my bridesmaids, I only have 2 more to go (they took forever!!).  What do you think?

Very nice! I wanted to attempt the hangers but I have a feeling I wont do very well at making the.

I ended up using 14 gauge wire, it was pretty hard to work with.  I think the 12 would be much easier to work with, I wish I had gotten it instead.  My hands were killing me!!

Very cute!  I have tried the 12 gauge and it's almost too flimsy.  I ended up with dents in places I didn't want.

Love the hangers! WIsh I had the patience...I ordered one for myself from a guy off Etsy, it just arrived yesterday and I love it so much I'm considering ordering for my BM!

Thank you all so much!!  I agree about the 12 gauge wire, I wasn't a huge fan of the thickness of it, I thought it was too thin.  The 14 gauge came out great, it was just a little harder to work with but if you have the patience for it, I love the way they came out.

Wonderful work!  Love the hanger.  I will have to see if I can fit in some time to do one too
