How To Make A Beaded Chicken Wire Suncatcher

This week on Free Spirit Beading with Kristen Fagan, I showed my creative path to make a trendy, glass beaded chicken wire suncatcher. This beaded suncatcher not only adds a pop of color to your space, but it also serves as a beautiful piece of art that catches and reflects the sun's rays. The process involves adding colorful glass bead dangles onto chicken wire, resulting in a stunning suncatcher.

I used an Embroidery Hoop, Chicken Wire, 5mm Jump Rings, Head Pins, Czech Glass Simple Cut Style Beads, and Memory Wire Cutter. Try it out and post your designs in our VIB Studio Facebook Group.

Note: A video by Creative Mom on YouTube showed me how to make this beautiful suncatcher. Click here to watch that video.
