I was just looking at your blog - I LOVE the hangers with your name and BM names - How did you do them?

    I bought the hangers 5 for $5 at Target.  The wire is 12 gauge floral wire from Michael's.  They are usually $2.99, but I bough all of mine with 40% off coupons.

    I did six names with two rolls.  Basically, you just need to practice.  Twisting the wire tight enough to make clear lines and without that messy squiggle look.  12 gauge is nice and loose so it is easy to maneuver.  I wrote out the name first and then twisted it.  Then you just drill two holes in the hanger where the wire will be inserted and hot glue it in the hole.  Nice and simple.

    Thanks! I tried it tonight with 14 gauge wire but it was really hard to work with so I'm gonna pick up the 12 gauge tomorrow.
