Spend sandpaper the ends to remove any rough or splintered zone after cutting the rods. If you have not saw and want to get one for this craft you can buy bars of different lengths or request that you cut them at your local hardware store.

The holes

Now let’s make holes through which pass the string that will hold the structure . You must measure the same distance on each rod and drill. Remember that having cut the rods with different lengths must drill the longest bar in the middle, or where touch, so you can spend short rope and hold them all bars. With this image you will understand what I mean.

Rope

And there is only the final step: the assembly of all parts.Interleaving colored balls and place some wood (if it is the same shade as bars, great) to give the personal touch to your creation. In this tutorial they have even added a heart. It can be cardboard or paper and go stuck on the rope, for example.
