Home for Wipping Tissue

I got the tools from hardware shop. I couldn't find aluminium wire in KL. I have surveyed all sort of shops (gift shop, art shop, flower craft shop, hardware shop, electrical shop, and even car repair workshop), they do not know what aluminium wire is. At the end, I use Bonsai wire.

My first project is to make a holder for wiping tissue at Amanda's play place. It is easy to make, finished it in 10 minutes. Bonsai wire is soft and it is easy to bend into shapes.
Amanda likes it very much. How do I know? She has been tearing off the tissue papers from the holder to wipe the table for ten over times on that night itself.

  6. hi! i've seen aluminium wires around. you can get them in Daiso (that Japanese shop where everything is RM5). there's one in The Curve.

    another place to get aluminium wire is this website: www.beading.com.my. the link is here: http://beading.com.my/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=165_312

    love your creations! can i link you? :)

  7. Maream, I bought the size 0.5cm width bonsai wire.

    Waiyee, I have seen those at Daiso too, but I think they are too thin and too colorful. I personally like copper color. Anyway, thank you for giving the useful advices. Feel free to link and share.
