Make Your Own Elegant Beaded Towel Holders

Beaded towel holders will make your guests feel welcome and give them the feeling of luxury. They are very easy to make and look very elegant when you make them with glistening beads.

These candle holders look very nice on a group setting. You can make taller candle holders the same way. Try varying the color of the beads.

If you have a small mirror that you can set a group of them on they really look nice that way. Put some small flowers or potpourri around them and you have a great centerpiece.

To make a towel holder you will need:

• Approximately 1 yard of craft wire.

• Needle-nose pliers.

• Your choice of beads.

Here’s how to make this project

Using your pliers, twist one end of the wire to form a closed loop. String your beads from the opposite end of the wire. To make the pink towel holder that is pictured here, put a heart bead as the first and last bead on your wire. Use different colors and sizes of beads to string onto the wire for a varied pattern that can be repeated.

String the beads until you have the desired length that you want. After the last bead, use the needle-nose pliers, twisting the wire to form another closed loop. Cut off the excess wire and you have now made a beaded towel holder.

Other Ideas Use old necklaces, shells, buttons, jewelry findings to make a different looking holder. You can also make smaller versions and use them as napkin rings. It is so easy to just wrap your design around anything you want to decorate. You can put them around candles, bottles or vases. Just let your imagination soar and you will come up with many different ideas
