    Hi,
    The work is great and simple..
    I understood the instructions but only when I try doing it, I get doubts.
    Let me try and let you know.
    Thanks for the instructions.

    Hi
    Yesterday I was cleaning my Almerah! I found this wire pack. We (me&myDD) bought it long long time back!!... After i saw the wire I started seaching for old gasket!!..got that also..Immediately swung into action.
    Here I'm uploading my finished work. Decorated with sea shells collected from Kanniyakumari & Kovalam beach.
    Actually I took this snap using my DH's Cellphone camera.So it looks a bit dull??!!
    thank you in advance.
    chitra.

    Hi
    You would encircle bottom of last match stick & now the wire is on the gasket. Now cut the extra piece, if any, leaving just enough to insert into the loop of first match stick from where we started doing.Apply little adhesive to stick it on. Thats it.
    See this link
    http://www.indusladies.com/forums/c...9-wall-hanging-using-gasket-5.html#post665104
    I wasn't able to insert into the 1st loop so I made it into the 2nd one. You could see it on left side of this picture.
    Hope I've explained to your satisfaction. If not,let me know.
