1
Cut a length of medium gauge wire to the length you desire. The longer the wire, the larger your wreath bell will be.
-
2
Use your needlenose pliers to create a small U-shaped hook on one end of your wire. The hook will keep the bells from sliding off of the other end of your wreath.

String your bells onto the wire. Alternate sizes for a full appearance. If you use more than one color of bell, alternate the colors and sizes for a balanced bell wreath.

4
Fill the wire with as many bells as you can fit, leaving an inch at the end to close your wreath.

5
Bend the remaining end of the wire into a small U-shaped hook, then slide the two hooks on each end of the wire together. Pinch the ends tightly with your needle-nose pliers to close the U-shapes completely, securing your wreath bell.

Wind a length of ribbon around the bell wreath and tie it into a beautiful bow, which you can then use to hang your new holiday ornament.
