How to Decorate a Wine Caddy with Wire & Beads - Inspirations with Jewels
Learn to decorate your sustainable baltic birch wine caddy, which is in the new Home Decor section of the online Jewel Loom store. Jewels shows how to use beads & flatbacks to decorate the caddy. The wood can also be decorated with non-water based products.
You can choose from 2 stem or 4 stem wine caddies, which set on top of your wine bottle, then hang your wine glasses from it. You can also get matching coasters. The holes were put along the sides so you can decorate your caddies with beads, wires, or with anything your imagination wants.

hello everyone welcome it's juwel Loom School live on Thursday February
15th still sending the love out to everyone um I posted the uh woven heart
that I did way back in 2019 on Jewelry Television when we came out with the uh
the goddess line of looms and so um I
love that heart I really should do a workshop on that because I got a lot of compliments and and comments so maybe
I'll I'll put that in the old the old brain there so welcome
welcome I'm Juliana and I am the inventor of the original jewel loom the blue one right here sitting in her
little uh sleigh in her cradle on her throne as Maria likes to to point out
and um and so yeah so we do a lot of beaning on a loom because I have a
variety of bead looms and I also have a variety of what I would refer to as like
mixed media fiber art Looms where you can use Sor ribbons and fibers and um
Yarns and you know all kinds of cool things to weave with um period Ally we
do um stringing we'll have most likely it's a guest who is doing that say Deb
floros or Joan dice or um Amber or Trisha you know we'll have somebody on
who does something a little bit different and um and so yeah so I funny
enough if it's not on the loom I I like me a good stretchy
bracelet that is my secret pleasure um I do like a stretchy bracelet and I'm you
know I I learned um from Katie hacker you know how to to do the stretchy
bracelet and with the with the uh the the core you know how she ties off and
uh uses the hypo cement and so you know there's a connection there right like I learned from one of my peers and so um
you know that was a lot of fun and so I what showing up is julan right now is
actually Joan Dyson she is saying she has a ton of stretchy cords so we may
see some stretchy uh stretchy bracelets from from Miss Joan but yeah so we do we
do different things my background is um General craft forever I've been in the
creative Industries for 25 plus who's counting but probably more
like 30 years now and so I have pretty much done anything and everything from
paper crafting to home decor to jewelry making to uh Japanese knots with ribbons
to um decorating geese to uh faux
finishing stained glass I mean you name it like I I I worked with elene Jackson
forever in a day and so I really got lucky to uh to learn a lot of different
applications so to day is really exciting because I felt like you know
we're doing all of these really cool wood products and the Looms are off the
charts like amen right can I get it come on
now but in addition to that I was like you know um people love home decor
and typically you can find stemware in a house and so I asked asked um Robert and
team hey can we do some stemware caddies and he was like yeah and I said you know
uh I would like to introduce those to the creative Soul members and that's what we did this
month we put a kit together for the creative Soul subscribers which there is
one we thought we were sold out there is one kit left so
Joan probably has the link to that and um and but that is it as far as like
getting the actual caddy in addition to all of the beads that come with it so
far I have been able to make a pair of earrings which I am super super loving
let me bring you closer let come on in darling so there's the
earring and so so yes I was able to make a pair so all of these beads were in the
February kit um and then I started working on my caddy this
afternoon and I'll just very carefully so look it oh my gosh I've already made
six of my I'm just referring to them as like chandelier
legs and I suppose that if I drank too much wine I would probably be wearing
this not that I've ever done that
before but so there's tons of beads and then we made you these look at these
little heart charms these are little Baltic B uh Birch heart charms and then look at the cute little um The Rose
there's two Swarovski um hearts in there they're
Flats they don't have they don't have holes and then I still have a lot of
beads left oh and I was showing Joan I was showing Joan like I was able
to make a little bead charm for the bottle or your or your stemware very cute right so I always uh
for the subscribers I'm I'm always working on the value of everything that you get so I even saw Maria mention
about a kit that she purchased that wasn't a subscription and she was giving
a giving a shout out on how there were still uh a lot of beads for her to play
with so I um I like I said I started
this so I did not get my Royal Talons paints yet um they've
been overseas at the very big show in Germany in Frankfurt so um I know
they're working on it and I'm super stoked I was gonna go to Michaels and try to figure figure out what to
buy but I couldn't I couldn't figure it out so I
didn't want to screw it up but I love I love how the Baltic birch wood wood
looks you know just as is especially with this gorgeous pattern um so if you
wanted you could just do like a protective coat of beeswax onto the
Baltic Birch or you can you know use products on your wood to enhance the
look I'm kind of digging the unfinished look right now I also want to and I'm
going to back back up and I'm going to Bow this this down and so the first thing that came to
mind and mind you I still have four four holes that I can I can um decorate okay
but here's what came to mind carara realtor right you make these you sell
your homes in Arizona wouldn't this be an awesome gift to give your buyers or
your sellers right Lisa here in California plus all my other real estate friends
all over the country I mean seriously way way too cool I was even thinking
about Deborah with her cosmetology business which she was just featured on
a television show in Texas I don't know if she has shared the link with everybody yet but I was just thinking
about this from a giftgiving place as well as for yourself
but so cool however you use it whether you keep it for yourself or you make them for somebody else I love love love
this idea so some really simple um thing
I I mean really all I did and I'll just show you too basically took some 22 gauge wire
strung some beads and then I thought oh my gosh how cute would it be if all the little hearts were sitting on top of the
caddy so then I would I put the water water the wire underneath and a heart
and then I just did a swirl it's kind of hard to see the swirls but the yep there you go I just swirled um the uh wire
there and so these are sitting now you wouldn't want to do standup Parts on the ends because that's where your wine
glass goes so let me show you that really quick okay and but what you could do is
I found some flatbacks okay so here's a flatback so like if you didn't want to put anything
here at all you could cover up the holes with some really gorgeous Crystal um you
know check um flatbacks and that would be that would
be awesome but anyway let me just very carefully because I've got the wine glasses over here you kind of have to
like disengage at the same time okay there we go by the way my sweet sweet
friend Armando Chavez who I went to high school with um when his mama went on to
uh Heaven uh she had a lot of
stuff and who am I not to go to a home that has a lot of stuff right anyway we found these um wine glasses and the
funny thing is that they were from mvin mids hasn't been around like forever
right and so um anyway I love them so Armando thank you I'm I'm showing off
your mama's wine glasses and so all you would do is you turn them upside down
and then they just go into the little slots here and this this
bottle of Josh Chardon um is a little bit shorter for some reason than the other wine bottles
and so they're just kind of like sitting on the table right now but look at how Gorge is that so
beautiful and again you can see why you would not want to put hearts on these
two sides because you're going to have your stemware slide into the slots there
and then if you didn't want to do anything here like any dangles you could just do some um you know flatbacks and
glue them on with some E6000 and call it a day so I once again I'm just going to remove these at the same same time um
I've actually got a a four slide over here let me scooch this
over really quick I feel like a bartender right
now okay so this [Music]
one this one look at this people tuning in are like I thought this was a weaving
Channel it is a weaving we're weaving home decor into our beaded life but this is
this is a four stemware caddy holder isn't that so cool and then this is the
one that has the grape um design on it but so much fun just in case you were
wondering like what the difference is so you would put two more pieces of stemware um into the slots there these
have holes on the ends and so uh this is the grape vine design so I'm going to go
ahead and scooch that back over bring Josh back in which of course that's my son and so and the brand actually
has very good Chardon um and cab they have a good cab
all right so I'm gonna come over here um not too sure how I want to do the camera
work yet let's see I think I'll see how this goes
okay so I'm gonna I'm going to bring that over okay so Janes got I think you can make me
little little ER I'm yeah you want to switch that
though
right I know I did it um last time I was on all by myself let me try
Joe
no there we go is that working yeah it's kind of just like a little
process there so after I did all of that I've made um six bead strands I've made
made a pair of earrings I've made the little wine charm I still have all of
these beads left so I could make another pair of earrings if I wanted um and I
could definitely make some more wine charms I'm sorry let me get my hand out of the way
okay so there's a lot um oh and here's another strand here's another strand so
you have a lot of beads to play with so basically what I did was um I took
a piece of 22 gauge wire now what comes in your kit is 24
gauge I decided to go ahead and use 24 for the uh wine charms or the bottle
charm and I went ahead and cut some 22 I was just kind of liking the more heavy
um thicker wire for this so these peacocks are fabulous I feel like they
look like little Dice and I think that my Bunko peep would love these I'm like tempted to
take it with me tonight because tonight is Bunko by the way so which me Lu okay
so I've gone through all of my well I still have let's see here's I've got two hearts left oh but I want to save those
for a pair of earrings so we're not going to use those okay so I'm going to
add one of these decorative beads and then I've got some silver fire polish
and so these might end up being like a little shorter oh maybe I do another peacock
let's see let's do another peacock I mean really they're just absolutely Divine and listen you don't have
to add all of these gorgeous beads uh to your wine uh stemware caddy if you don't
want to you could certainly uh use them for traditional jewelry making do some
stringing like our um our Deb floros our little stringing
goddess you could do that um you could do whatever you want I just like to give
you really awesome quantity and quality
and inspire you with some ideas I guess it would be nice if I
could see oh my goodness holy guacamole how come I can't see the hole there come on
buddy oh this is so funny not really but there we go
okay and we'll get another silver one out here and I'm GNA just this
definitely is a little bit heavier using three of the peacocks
so and because I've got the stem that's going to be nestled into
that slide on you know on the caddy I don't think I'm going to go as long
because well let's face it every stemware piece is going to be different
right you may have um stems that are shorter and so you know you want this
piece over on the end here to lay to lay right so I I'm going to say I'm only
going to do like what is this three three and a quter inch maybe okay so where's all
my where's all my tools um I'm going to go ahead
and okay and I do think let me see I
might need to put another silver oh wait wait wait because I've
got to go up and even though this might be where
my jump rings come in um okay I'm talking out loud talking
out loud thinking thinking I
might okay so if I do it this way can you still you no because if I do a jump ring that's going to have that's going
to have [Music] some um height okay so I'm just going to
do and no judging because Mama doesn't always do these Loops that one came out
just fine all right so what I'm GNA do is I've got like
ginormous jump rings and let me bring over the let me see let me bring this
into let me see if I can't slide this actually underneath the
um underneath get my tools feel like a like a dental technician right now with all
my tools what I want to do
is let me see here I don't know if I'm going to be able to do that and get
my hold that [Laughter]
thought hold that thought see I just have to become my own camera person
right okay so there's the hole where the slide is I'm G to come in a little bit
more there we go Juliana okay so well then I got to kind
of get this funky arm going in
here and then we can do this
and hold that with my flat this is so
pretty and then we're going to lock that
in I think I need new glasses because even with my glasses on I'm having a hard
time I think that kissing I'll have to go back and check it out
but there we go okay so that works out really really
well and I just for Giggles hold on I want to see what happens I want to see what happens
with with the glass
did that oh yeah see totally there's all this room under here so very cool very
cool so yeah so I would you could see why I was talking about um I was talking
about not making this one as long as the others because we don't want it hitting
the actual body of the glass so okay very cool so I'm going to take these out
carefully
okay yeah so you could see and then see where on some of these I just look at these cute little charms
then that work out really nice they're just beautiful so so pretty oh I like that a lot that is so Gorge
yeah I totally can see these as surprise
gifts I think my realator friends need [Laughter]
these okay let me go over this
way okay so same thing um you know you're
just going to string
these it's very simple uh what did I do okay I did with
these
guys and I need more silver and another
peacock and by you know this is just my example you can certainly string them
however um however you
like and I mean this is a lot of beads you can make these shorter if you're
just like Jews I love the idea but I want to have some more beads for jewelry then do that you know you could cut
these little guys in half I you know me I like long go big go home right so you
could definitely change it up um oh my gosh I can't remember the total count of strength right now but it's a
lot so you have lots and lots I this bead though in the
dark because I don't seem to have an Eli right now there we
go a that's cute Robert thank you they literally just showed up at the
door by the way so Jane Jane uh was very
excited to get her creative Soul subscription and I said everything's
supposed to be here today so we'll be packing all weekend and uh and so uh so
the Box literally just landed at the front door Marlon Brando of course wanted to you know what is it with dogs
like you know he's 26 pounds he thinks he's going to eat the UPS man I'm like
dude that's that's your bread and butter right there don't eat the UPS
man' oh my goodness okay this is embarrassing why
can't I find I see the darn thing why can't I
find it's so funny come
on there we
go yeah they're so um they're super cool I was saying that our realtor friends
need to make these and uh and have them on the counters of their
homes that they they sell for their sellers or their buyers and sometimes a
realtor represents both sides how do I know these things I have many many realtor
friends great realtor friends but just as a gift in general
like if you're um I have a girlfriend that does um organic wine my sweet friend
cricet Cricut reps uh a organic line of wine
and did I do that right wait what did I
do oh I did one too many hold on hold that
thought um yeah so Cricut does really cool
parties um and she reps a really cool line of organic wine I could see
these um Iana you could have these on your on
your uh tables at all your at all of your boutiques you're doing you
know uh let me get my retail
words it's not a loss it wouldn't be a loss um oh my gosh you know it's the
item that draw PE draws people in and you could actually use this to display
your jewelry that would be hot that would be super
hot you know not for nothing these could be charms right like you could just like
make these and then you could do like little S hooks and put the S hooks in the holes
and then these guys would be hanging from them and you could sell those like
Mama is in her money mode right now so take notes I think that would be a super cool
idea and you just price it right right because you've always got to have that item that helps to pay for your table or
your booth okay if you want to know more of what I'm talking about then just ask me
but I'm just thinking that would be a really cool idea I just see I don't know why I'm seeing like I'm seeing gift
giving I'm seeing money making I don't know and usually when
that happens I'm I'd hate to say it but I am right so
all right where's another jumbo another
jumbo and like I said we um I thought we were sold out on this kit but there is one left and then the caddies are sold
separately so you don't you could buy a caddy all on its
own I got to move this way a little got little too much in the
way so just want to get this
here the S hooks would be a great way to switch out the look of the caddy too
yes yeah like yeah that's a great idea
behind the behind the jeel lumid Joan great idea Joan okay so I'm going
to yeah so for these pieces you know I cut like five inches long of wire
obviously way too long I don't need that long of a piece but that's okay so we'll
just trim that and round those
pliers so I'm just going to grab
those going to walk it
up do a little rolly
roll and make sure I'm in the camera there I'm going to bring this in a
little tighter and then just grab that with
my flats I'm looking for my
bent oh this one's a little tighter how
come okay there we go wa out
to I love the sound okay so and then you're just GNA
you know straighten them out because you are making these with wire so let's
um let me
see oh my stomach is
growling I just think they're so stinking fun so I did I see what I did
here I should have make sure that you oh okay that just turned that's all okay
yeah whoops
okay
um okay so yeah so I mean you can see just
look at how fun it's just so incredibly beautiful so I have a party to go to and
it says to bring two of something that you love I might have to make two of these and bring them
because I just think they're really super cool
nice okay so so that's the caddy and you could just you know you can do as many
let me just tilt this up a little here you can do as many of the holes
that you want if you don't want to do that like I suggested you could take your flatback and some E6000 actually
look how cool it would be to take flatbacks and put them in between that would
decorate it even more okay I'm getting crazy I could just like bling this whole
thing up to the so it's seen in outer space um just to give you a
little quick thing on the earrings I mean you know that was a very simple uh
head pen oh those are pieces of wire that would not work so I just took a
headpin and um slid it actually did I take let
me see what did I I think I might have taken a seed bead first did I I did I
love these they're so pretty I'm going to wear them tonight to Bunco um let me find so I have like
these tiny little 11 O's of course they're so so tiny so I'm just going to
pick up a a silver whoops silver 11 o and and then took a a heart from the
kit and we'll take another heart from the
kit and I think I'll take a fire polish okay
so it doesn't have to like you don't have to get like all let me bring this up to the camera easy look how gorgeous
easy right you don't um have to reinvent the wheels you just get a head pen put the beads
that come in the kit and so then we'll just do a um loopy
Looper I know there's fancy tools out there to make loops and there's all kinds of ways to move your hands but
this is how I do it so forgive me not the best Loop but that's
okay aren't they so cute and then you just put your ear wire color today so the other thing that I did and
I guess there could be a couple different ways that you could get to this point I cut a
piece let me see I cut a piece of the 24
gauge you can't do wire working without nylon job pliers by the way in my humble
opinion all right so what I did did here was I literally just
made I just did [Music] um hold on for a sec let me see if I can
I need to get that
out okay look like a little Kink yeah thanks
bab there's just like a lot of um there's just so many things you can do
right so I'm just going to do a little one on that and then I want this
one to go the opposite direction so I'm G to go this
way and then I used I guess you could see in that one
with me I just used the top of the wine bottle and then
I crisscrossed those two ends
let me see maybe I could do this see how I'm just using the top of
the wine bottle and then I crisscrossed crisscrossed I wrapped and then I like crossed over the ends just a
form a round piece if you have like a
ring mandrel you might be able to use that but really you're just trying to get you
know you're trying get the shape of the bottle and that works really well like
if it's in front of you use it right so that works really well and then these
two guys okay so then what I did what did I do what did I do I used another
head pen I sat here this morning and I just like was having so much fun I was just
like oh I could do this I could do that I like when there's like aish Board
of morish Borg of ideas of fun things that you can do that are simple quick and
easy lots of times when we're on the loom did I say that right
lots a lot of the time let me slow down a lot of the time when we're on the
loom we're doing really super cool projects and they're they take time they
just do but they're gorgeous when you're all said and done but I love like it when we can do something and it's and
it's fast easy and beautiful so anyway I took um I took a peacock looks like I
took a peacock and then I took two fire
polish so one one two fire
polish and looks like this is just a smidge too long so I'm going
to cut that and then we'll just make a
loop and okay and then I have to remind myself what I did oh yeah that's right
so I should probably open that back up it was hours
ago so then I just brought in that little ring okay that guy is way too
tiny how' I get it that small holy cow let's open that back
up we need this to be a little bit bigger so let me do that without
screwing it all up so let's get this back in
here [Music] and
yep perfect and then I just got to close
this okay and then let's see how that works on this one so cute now obviously you
can leave it wait where where are we oh that's the
overhead
um you could put it as a decoration for your top of your wine bottle it's kind
of fun right it's like a Barret like a hairpiece um or by all means you could
attach them to the stemware like people do right like here's one that I I made
at a different party but this is a charm so same idea this wire is
different wire though it's not artistic wire it's like a hard wire probably I don't even know but it's
different but we can make our own we can make our own okay I'm going
to remove that come back in here get this out of my
face and scooch this over and where there in any questions that had come up
Shaquisha sending you love Mama and let me get this so I don't look
like I'm sitting low like Lily Tomlin so there's just there's so much
so so much that you can do with this kit and I just love it it's so pretty look
so we still got to finish these wait where we at where's the camera so over
here but they're just Gorge gous super gorgeous I'm crooked let me get my wine
glasses my stemware from Armando's
[Music] mama just hold these
up this so pretty oh my God I seriously I just can't I just
can't it's so stinking Gorge so beautiful
beautiful yeah so you could you know you don't have to put the ones on the side where am I at like if you want to save
your beads and maybe you just have the chandeliers on the front side you know the front and then the back that's fine
too or you can make them shorter I just went to town I used obviously a lot of
beads that came in the kit because I wanted to really show them off to
you so super super fun yay
all right Joanie do we have any
questions not anything that um you haven't answered yeah oh what wire gauge
did you use um the wire gauge I used to string the beads was 22 gauge artistic
wire in your kit you have 24 gauge which is going to be perfect for like you know
the ring for the you know for the for the stemware or bottle cap
Rings um yeah so I think 22 would be is it it
it helped to work with a stiffer wire to do the um to do the
strands was it like maybe this is my question when you said it was a stiffer wire was it um like um I want to
think now I can't think of the name of that wire not stainless steel but um
half hard wire of it yeah German style oh yeah
I yeah I I just felt when I started to string um when I started to make these
little chandel I'm referring to these as like chandelier pieces because that's what they remind me of by the way when I
started to string these the thinner wire was just a little too wonky and I felt
like the beads needed more support and so that's why I switched it up to 22
gauge but I don't I mean German style wire is a lot more expensive I don't
know that you want to use that on this but maybe on your
rings on your little stemware Rings memory wire works good for stem and
David to the rescue of course it does I by the way love it that you come to this
I mean how long have I been talking about like the jewel loom men where are the
jewel loom [Laughter] men to find David and
him my My Little Adorable Virginians but um thank you for that thank you so David
is saying that memory wire works good for stem rings and we appreciate you and

in April that very special Papa Joe project that my girlfriend Brandy
designed and it's probably going to be a tear jerker I'm just GNA say but I'm I'm I wanted it
to be for Father's Day and I feel in my heart of hearts that a lot of you are going to want to
make it so I think from a Time standpoint that I need to release it in
April so that if you do want to make it for Father's Day you're going to have the time to do
so because it's it's it's going to take time to make this project but it's so
good I can't wait you got me curious I know and my girlfriend Brandy is like
well what do you want to call it because I and and I was like Papa
Joe my dad Papa
Joe oh my gosh now you calling something else too besides Papa didn't you um Papa Joe Papa Joe no
papa Joe was his name Papa Joe dad I was thinking you called him something else too I don't know I can't remember yeah I
can't I don't I don't know I mean J is is port for Joe Portuguese so no another
name for Dad it was another name for Dad I can't oh I don't know maybe it was
Papa yeah you're not that formal my father well F yeah like we
loved calling him J because that's his that's how you say Joe in Portuguese a
Jose so J and so I we would love to call you know we loved calling him that so
but oh okay yeah and Robert you do have a good point the coasters are Beyond cool they're so beautiful and so many
people added them to their order um with no extra shipping that's a cool thing about the creative soul group too is
that from time to time there is room for from a weight standpoint so the shipping
that is collected um they're you know ever so often is weight
available and these don't weigh much and so we were able to add up to four of
these um in the subscribers orders of course they paid for them but they didn't have to pay shipping so um but
these ones are just absolutely gorgeous and these are look at the detail on the
grap Vines look at that yeah so cool so cool I mean you know not
for nothing you could you might be able to get away with it oh
my don't go there I know exactly where your mind just went I can't anywhere I
don't know I don't know should I be in the Knoxville lunch group I
get might get arrested I don't
know can't wait to get mine and paint oh Rosalinda is going to paint them and resin them please show that oh yes res
that' be cool because that would protect it even more oh that's gonna be hot
remind people do not use water-based prod products on it yeah you do have to on all of your Baltic birch wood
products you got to be careful that you don't um you know it's wood So you
you're not using like a water-based I think somebody once tried to use watercolors and that was that
didn't work out um so acrylic paints you know work really well I actually found
this really cool set of paints let me show it to you and I looked all over to make sure it didn't say water based okay
and so I looked at it and it said acrylic so I thought oh it's safe and then when I get it home it says
permanent acrylic base and then it says safe non-toxic
waterbased I didn't know that acrylic could be waterbased Robert what do you
think about that we'll see if he's if he chimes in
and he says something what I was thinking about doing is on one of the
back as of one of the buttons I was gonna try putting some um like um
coating on it and then paint over that to see how it would look and then put some more coating over it okay so Robert
made me a bunch of Baltic Birch tags like pieces of wood but they're in the
shape of a tag and I'm gonna be taking my you know my journal and my tags when
I go to the National Art and materials trade Association creativation show and
New Orleans uhuh oh my gosh like in four to five weeks from now oh I oh that oh my
gosh you got a lot of work to do I'm dying um so I'm gonna go around there's
going to be a lot of paint
markers different applications I even want to go to maker
flow and see what happens to the wood that's a great idea yeah I'm totally on
a mission so I'm going to just like take all my tags and I'm G to have like you know um I'll do samples on the tags and
then be able to write on the back to kind of like oh okay this was Royal talents blah blah blah or this was maker
flow blah blah blah so it's going to be a lot of fun because I'm going to come back with so much info for you guys I've
used wink of Stella and Luna without having problems but I have also resined
most of them okay that's I never heard of wink aelle and Luna to know what it is
yeah he says it should be fine I think that's what we use oh okay the acrylic
paint okay yeah well what I'll do is You' sent me a few defective buttons a
couple years ago I still have them and what I do is on the the side I mean they didn't print right or laser right do it
on that because I can always use the other side you know what I mean nobody's gonna see so that's what I do when I
test out stuff so I'll do that on one those buttons yeah you just did it you said I don't know what to do with these
so you can figure it out you figure it out color them in make it
work test that's my pain test
well I I'm probably gonna take a little break over the weekend I might do something on one day but for the most
part the next four days I'm going to be like getting all the subscriptions together and out um and I'm going to be
like inventory Queen Robert has sent me some new products earrings
buttons I can't by the way Robert I can't
like so I just so awesome I'm so stoked yeah
from first glance they're Super Rad okay lunar paste is made by Ranger I wonder
if Ranger is gonna be there this year I don't know I'm totally up yeah
I'm going to test out everything I can because I really want to equi you with
the knowledge of what can you do to the Baltic Birch and I know some of the Lun I mean
the ranger some of the Ranger paints I mean they like um ventage made wood stuff and then
they used paints on it so yeah yeah they have beautiful things vintage yeah we
love that so all right well um there like I said there was one kit
left I have no clue at this moment if it's gone but um you can get the caddies
you can buy them individually and then you can um you can uh see saying they're
so cool the new items the new items are really cool sh he's doing a
sh I didn't tell quit teasing
us Birch that was painted six years ago that still looks incredible okay cool
yeah so okay lots of fun stuff peeps lots of fun stuff so yay again oh my
gosh I just can't my realtor friends need this my business friends you need
this in your home look at this so cool whoops wrong direction it's just so
Gorge that is you know I've already got a thought of doing something
different oh you do that yeah I have see if it works out why you want me to say
or do it first I'll say it because somebody else might want to try it okay so there's
five holes along each side right yes so what I want to do is loop from the
first to third the third to the fifth you know make long Loops so they hang
down in loops and then the second I'll start the second and go to the fourth so
you know just be strand just you know something different like traditional
chandeliering yeah something like that and do you want to do it with what with silver silk or with I was beads
so you're just gonna string beads and then go from Lo to because I figured maybe I might be
able to make a charm to hang at the bottom of the loop or something you know yeah figure out do
charm I don't know these I don't know that well when I get mine I'll play with it and figure it out that's just the
idea of my head now I have a couple extras so I'll um I'll send uh send an
extra one with you okay so you can play around okay
otherwise too I got a lot of crystals that I've been sitting on for years I can even try on them too oh yeah you
know the crystal beads or whatever and these somebody Ginger actually gave me
these really funky ones and I thought what am I gonna do with those and actually they'd be cool on the bottom of those strands Ginger and the word funky
