With all that is going on in the world at this time, I am drawn to the Peace Symbol more than ever. Inspired by a popular peace sign grapevine wreath, I decided to make a small version for the tree. For this project all you’ll need is vine covered wire, wire clippers, needle nose pliers and a leather strap or piece of yarn.
A small peace sign ornament made from vine covered wire is easy to make and fun to do with the kids. Hang it on the tree or attach it to a gift.
Supplies: vine covered wire (craft stores & online), wire clippers, needle nose pliers and a cord or yarn to hang it up.
Wrap the ends of the wire around your circle to secure. I used needle nose pliers to get a tight finish. Some of the vine covering may fray at the ends, I trimmed with scissors and held down the ends with a bit of hot glue.
Cut a piece of wire that is long enough to fit the length of your circle with leftover length for wrapping and to leave a loop at the top. Straighten and attach vertically.
