The response I got back was more than I could've ever hoped for. I was overwhelmed with tips, suggestions for materials, and links to videos and suppliers.
I decided to go with it, and I spent the past couple days watching kids ranging from 1st-8th grade enjoy this craft! They had to practice a little patience as they had to wait for an adult to bend the end of each wire before starting on the next, but it seems like when they really enjoy a craft, suddenly they have way more patience than you'd ever expect!
So today, I want to give a big THANK YOU to Diane of dragon144 for her tremendous generosity in sharing her craft with 30-40 kids.
A few examples of the fruits of their labor:

I am SO pleased that the kids had fun (and you, too!)!! I love to encourage anyone of any age to try being creative and learn something new. Making something yourself is a wonderful way to have fun. It can be frustrating at times, but the satisfaction with a finished piece finally achieved is well worth it. I always smile when someone else finds that pleasure :-)
