How pretty are geodes??? I love the shapes and the variations in color! Geode slices are used mostly for jewelry, but I wanted to incorporate them into my home decor. They look so beautiful when the light shines through them, so I decided to make a Geode Suncatcher DIY. Geodes can be pricey but I found a great deal on Amazon. This is an easy project to make and it will look amazing hanging by a sunny window!
Supplies:
Agate slices with pre-drilled holes
Embroidery floss
Nylon thread
Metal craft ring
Geode Suncatcher DIY
Wrap the ring with embroidery floss
Cut 3 strands of embroidery floss 32 inches long. Make a loop in the middle of the floss, put over ring and pull the end through to tighten.
Gather the floss into 3 groups of 2 strands and braid
Make 2 more sets of strands, attach to the ring, and braid.
String the nylon thread through the agate.
Tie the agate on to the hoop. Knot a few times to make sure it's secure.
Tie on more slices, staggering the lengths
