Wooden Bubble Cube
Who all is loving the trendy bubble candles?
I just cant get enough of them!
You've probably seen a version of this at Target or another store.
That's the inspiration behind this aesthetic cube decor.
To start you're going to need the following:
- At least 27 wooden beads
- A hot glue gun
- A hair dryer
Start with your wooden beads. Here I have a bowl full of them.
Go ahead and grab three beads and glue them together.
You want them to be in a straight line as tight as possible.
Once you have the first three lined up go ahead and keep them squeezed together for about 10 seconds before letting go
Next, you'll repeat the process until you have 3 lines of beads and each line should have 3 beads glued together
Glue all three lines together forming a square
Repeat the entire process over twice more.
Each time creating a square out of three rows of three beads glued together.
And you're done! I use a blow dryer to get rid of any stray hot glue webbing. The hot air just melts them away. Giving it a neat finish.
You can use it as a little vase or just style it on its own.

An easy way to keep the beads straight - just stick a skewer in each row of beads. Glue beads together and remove skewer when they're dried.
