First you’ll need – 1 small round wooden plaque, 3 wooden dowels, 3 wooden beads, 1 small glass vial, glue, craft saw (or a serrated edge knife will do fine)Cut two of the wooden dowels to approximately 5″ in length. Cut the third to 6″.

Use the glue to adhere a wooden bead to the end of each of the three dowels. You can use this as an opportunity to hide jagged edges inside the beads..

Glue the dowels to the back of the plaque and the glass vial to the front of the plaque. To hang the vase, either drill a small hole in the back or affix a picture hanger

*TIP: Wait at least 12 hours before filling the vase so the E-6000 can work it’s magic!

You can customize this DIY ditty by painting it wood to fit your decor style, use washi tape on the dowels to add instant patterns, change the beads & plaque to glass and square shapes or even adding a few colorful feathers gives it a dream-catcher vibe!
