Tip: if you don't have a hot glue gun you can actually use a large needle and thread to stitch the rope together as I did here to hang my tea light lanterns in my bathroom.

I literally did this DIY in 3 minutes flat. And while I'm not a fan of the hot glue gun for fashion DIYs, home DIYs are a completely different matter and the glue gun is quick and easy and profesh {as long as you can't see the dried glue}. And obviously, if you want it larger, wrap & glue more rope around.

Have Fun!



*Blue and white dishes are Mikasa from the early 80's. They were my mom's and I've always loved them and I'm lucky to finally have a home to use them in. Thanks mom! {in case you want to search for them, the bottom says Mikasa | Fine China | Peking | L6103 | Japan}

That looks amazing!!!
That gave me another idea, to stick a wire inside the rope to make the rope stiff and loop the rope a little more loose. So that one loop doesn't touch the other. I think that would look cool too!
