social nesting

With those beautiful brassy ornaments from Ferm Living and Kristina Krogh decorating our minds, we set out to find the easy DIY way to replicate this chic Christmas look. And our shot took 10 minutes.

These brass mesh circles are the result of having bought a sheet of this (and I don’t know what it is, but when I saw it in a local hardware store, I had to buy it) for around £10. It’s a stiff brass mesh sheet of some kind…

WARNING: this is not a craft for kids. the edges are spiky and you should wear gloves and a goggles to avoid flying bits of brass.

So you need this brass mesh sheet, masking tape, strong sharp scissors, string and the aforementioned gloves and goggles.
Place stripes of the masking tape on the mesh and trace circles (I used the masking tape roll) with a pencil.

Bang. You are in the homestretch.
Cut them out, string them up and you are done.

This really did take 10 minutes. So so easy and so much cheaper than their Danish counterparts.
