Your Eid table deserves attention.
What you need:
Start by shaping the craft wire into a sturdy circular base. From the top of the circle, form a crescent moon and balance a small star within or just above it. Take your time adjusting the proportions so the design looks elegant and well-balanced.
Once you are happy with the frame, carefully wrap thick jute twine around the wire. Secure it in place with strong glue as you go. This softens the metal structure and gives the piece a warm, rustic finish.
Place candles inside the circular base to create a cosy glow. The result is a simple yet striking DIY table centrepiece that feels intentional rather than overdone.
