Untwist coat hanger and create star shape (starting at halfway point of wire)<br \/>\n2. Bend wire every inch to create 5 points<br \/>\n3. Twist at bottom of star to connect wires (cut off one of the wires to shorten twist)<br \/>\n4. Spray paint wire (both sides)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/andersruff.com\/custom-printable-parties\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/american-girl-diy-bubble-wand-02.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-24058\" alt=\"Adding beads to DIY bubble wand\" src=\"http:\/\/andersruff.com\/custom-printable-parties\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/american-girl-diy-bubble-wand-02-640x225.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>5. Pick various beads and add to desired length (I made this wand about 8&#8243; long)<br \/>\n6. Once beads are in place, bend wire up to create a loop at the end of the wand. \u00a0(Metal hangers are difficult to bend but are sturdy&#8230;. If you want a child to do this by themself, I would use a thinner wire).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/andersruff.com\/custom-printable-parties\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/american-girl-diy-bubble-wand-03.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-24059\" alt=\"Making DIY beaded bubble wands\" src=\"http:\/\/andersruff.com\/custom-printable-parties\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/09\/american-girl-diy-bubble-wand-03-640x439.jpg\" width=\"640\" height=\"439\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>7.
