DIY~Make Beautiful Wreath Ornaments From Mardis Gras or Party Beads!

[@bellnorton4453]

What a beautiful and fantastic idea. Living in Louisiana, we get quite the abundance of beads.

[@katherinehaught7950]

P.S. I like your projects because you ALWAYS finish things so clean & professional. I am a perfectionist so your crafts really appeal to my style. Thanks for all your inspiration.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you Sweetie! I've been told I'm a perfectionist, but only when it comes to myself...not other people.

[@karenschlenker1241]

Well done Happy Bird another great easy and project. 💜❤️🤗

[@l.nadinebrockharris2022]

This popped up in my feed this morning Happybird, right on time. I came across a bag full off the beads my sister sent me over a year ago. I was going to trash them because I had no idea what to do with them and Bam your video shows up. Thank you for the ideal 🤗❤

[@annabenjamin8409]

I really love these little wreaths! Am definitely going to make some for our tree and for gifts. I love all of your videos...you explain the steps clearly and your voice is so soothing. Thank you for all you do!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you Sweetie! I do appreciate your kind words! Love and God bless!

[@deborahfenley5825]

Awesome and gorgeous😉👍 and super cheap to make. Thank you Happy Birds💖⛄⛄⛄⛄

[@ansjeloef8770]

The ornaments are adorable and beautiful. Thank you for sharing the tutorial.

[@karenmanning5915]

So cute and creative!! I have plenty of green beads from St. Patrick's Day and now I know what to do with them! They will be great on the Christmas tree!! Thanks!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Perfect Karen! I should have stocked up on the red beads during Valentine's day. :o)

[@pattijohellmann6846]

I love these. I never thought of adding jewelry to the center. Bravo!

[@MaryMary-uo5vz]

So cute!! I am seeing different holidays, Halloween, Easter, fall also. Like you said so many color combos. Thanks for sharing. Good to see you back! Enjoy your vacation.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Wonderful idea Mary Mary! Thank you so much! I did have a wonderful vacation, but I have to admit it is good to be back in my own bed at night. :o)

[@orlendatube]

LOVE the look of these! I think that we might be able to do them next year at the center for vision loss! I think its do-able for the blind... I think it could make a lovely border for a dreamcatcher too (glued to the ring you weave the thread onto).

[@gentlejules7255]

I'm making some right now. I suck at making bows! LOL! Love how you teach step by step. Thanks and God bless!

[@elisepelletier9474]

Love this idea! So much bang for your buck and not very complicated. Thanks

[@susanjones7872]

Beautiful! You are a very good teacher! Thanks so much!

[@sherylldupuis4330]

Thank you very much!

[@lisac7151]

I'm so glad I found this. I have some beautiful stringed beads. I even tried to drill a hole to get rid of the string and it didn't work. Thanks so much and you do beautiful work!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

You are so welcome Lisa! It took me a while to figure out what to do with the Mardis Gras beads for the same reason as you. I'm hoping to come up with more ideas for future videos as well!

[@lisac7151]

OneVeryHappyBird I'll be watching. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

[@martinosharon]

Omg super cute. Can't wait to make some would make cute little gifts. Have a great day and God bless. P. S. I live in Louisiana and have tons of Mardi Gras beads.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you for your kind words Katherine! I so appreciate it! :o)

[@ashleaspruce6703]

I got lots of those beads when my kids were little and didn't know what to do with them so I give them away ! Now that I had been watching most of your videos, you inspired me to start making these pretty ornaments. Thank you for sharing and happy happy new year to you and your family.

[@vivianctk]

[@szk1959]

Thanks! That’s very beautiful!

[@terrycoleman550]

[@pdelmercado]

The reindeer is my favorite. How about a craft room tour? You look very organized.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Hi Sweetie! Well, there isn't much to tour. LOL! I have a "corner" in the room where everything is organized and I have my craft desk. I've seen some crafters on KZbin that have entire rooms that look like a craft store because they have so many supplies. Mine is not like that. Although, it would be pretty awesome! LOL!

[@destresswithyoga]

Such creativity ❤❤❤😊

[@elizabethvallely4044]

They are so pretty and cute love the idea! Be making a few for Christmas! Your bows look great, Thank you for Sharing!!! God Bless hugs Liz x

[@stmnMcdn]

ABSOLUTELY gorgeous! !!! I'm totally trying this. ty so much

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

You are so welcome!

[@katherinehaught7950]

P.P.S. One more thing. Last year l made your red & white beaded snowflakes for my neighbors & my grandchildren's teachers . I am always looking for small handmade gifts for things like that. School bus drivers get the biggest kick out of little things. I think they may be forgotten much of the time. My grandchildren love giving these little gifts out. O. K. I will hush this time. I am going to have to watch this one again as l was too busy rattling. LOL

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

That is so sweet of you to give the bus drivers an ornament. I'm sure it meant a lot to them! I know because I worked 28 years for the School District and unfortunately the classified staff were forgotten quite often. They are blessed to have you!

[@sherina57]

Adorable! So simple to make. TFS.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you very much Sharon! :o)

[@Moriah923]

This is a take on making little wreaths, for me anyway. I can use this idea to make them for my dollhouses. So, so cute, Hugs

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Very cool! That's what I love to do...to inspire other people and get them to thinking!

[@doreenducharme6053]

"I must try these wreath ornaments and your snow flake ones too!" They are so beautiful.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you so very much Hun!

[@sharonbeckett721]

These are just so cute, definitely got to have a go at making some!

[@breakingthread]

Very Cute! Love it. You are so creative. Thanks for sharing.

[@leefinch8782]

everything you do is amaszing, love watching your tutorials, from Sydney Australia, keep up the good work.....Lee

[@susanhewett2582]

Love this! Thank you for sharing.

[@devorahstevens6194]

Clear nail polish is what I use for my ribbon. From the Dollar Tree of course!!

[@janetli921]

I LOVE THE MINNIE MOUSE ONE. ITS BEAUTIFUL!!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you Sweetie! That one is going to my daughter-in-law. She LOVES Mickey and Minnie. :o)

[@bettyliberge]

I Love it,everything you make is beautiful.

[@jmarcos1008]

I love these. Thank you Happy bird.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

You are so welcome Hun!

[@biceberry2874]

Beautiful 👍🏻🎄

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you so much!

[@pdelmercado]

Very pretty. I love that your crafts are easy and doable. Some crafters are pushing high end equipment that they either want to sell, or get a kickback on for helping sell, or they demonstrate crafts that require a lot of skill and/or time.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

I know what you mean Hun. If you need 6 different scrapbooking punches to make a little decoration, then you are really limiting your audience. I try very hard to do crafts with common materials. I may use a tool here or there, but they are generally not out of reach price wise. When I crafts, I take into consideration the seniors who are living on Social Security, the single Mom with 2 kids, The woman with the husband who is out of work, etc.

[@elainewhite9361]

aww I like these,they are really pretty,I am going to make some just as soon as I get some white pipe cleaners,I have every colour but white grr.Thanks for sharing,much love and many blessings xx

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you Sweetie! Much love and God bless you too!

[@kskollections2142]

[@happywifecraftssuzie6432]

Hi there 😃 very beautiful! I learned a lot! I have a tun of those beads but had no idea what to do with them! Lol! But now I do thank you!! I wanted to also let you know that if you used 1 more 3mm or 4mm jump ring at the top your charm will hang straight. 😃 thank you so much for sharing this beautiful wreath!!!

Another beautiful project. Just one question, what size Mardis Gras beads do you use?

[@marthalofton1848]

I have made 20 of these today. will finish them tomorrow. got plenty of Mardis Gras beeds..

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Oh my goodness! LOL! You have one set of strong hands. I would never make it! At least not all at once. :o)

Blessings! lynda a. xo p.s. I have always loved your working area & especially the craft board with all the squares, etc. on it....where might I find one please?

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you Sweetie! I found the mat at Walmart, however, I have also seen the exact same one at Michael's. If you decide to buy it at Michael's, I would use a coupon because it was more expensive there. I'm so glad you enjoyed this video Hun!

[@jamessparks293]

James Vanessa's wreaths Marcus Dell

[@pachambers]

Very pretty! Thanks!

[@nancytoupin2190]

These are so cute! It would be so fun personalizing these like you did with the Minnie Mouse button. Everything you do always looks so polished and well done. I love that you take your time and explain in such detail that even I can follow along and be successful! I hope you have a very Blessed and Merry Christmas!

[@naomijacobs7616]

I just want you to know it wasn't easy for me at first lol! I am working on these now. They re turning out pretty. I couldn't find the bells to glue on at Micheals today. I did find the jump rings. I will go to Wal-Mart and check when I get a chance. Thank You

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Awww! That's okay Hun! It took me a couple of wreaths before things started to look good for me.

[@nancyhdezpr]

Amazing! Thanks!

[@fayfavored1231]

I love every one of these. Where were you when I needed to make ornaments a few weeks ago? LOL Your bows always look pretty great to me. Going to make some of these, but have to get the beads. What kind of hot glue gun were you using? Couldn't see it that well. Really nice job. Sharing this :)

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Awww! LOL! Sweetie, I have a multi-temp Ad Tech hot glue gun. You can find them at Walmart for about $15 or so. Hope this helps! Hugs to you!

[@fayfavored1231]

Thank you!

[@fayfavored1231]

Just wanted to tell you I made these & gave them as gifts. They turned out so pretty I made a set for us. Love them!

[@naomijacobs7616]

Love this wreath! I will have to make these wreaths.
