Wire Art Project




All that I used for this project was a scrap piece of wood, about 12 to 14 screws, and some 18 gauge wire. First, I traced my shape onto a piece of wood. Then, I used screws to outline the shape (as shown above) and then I began by weaving the wire around each screw being sure to go in all directions. Once I was happy with the way it looked, I just simply removed the screws and I had this sort of artsy fartsy looking heart. I of course, mounted this to an old kitchen cabinet door but you could take this project in so many different directions. If you decide to make one for yourself, I hope you have fun with it!
