Step 7Make your first two sides. I call them Snakes.
I find it easier to work on the ground and use my feet as clamps.
It doesn't matter if you start making your short side first or your long side first. I chose to make the longer side first.
Count your bottles that you will need for this side and the side opposite.
Bend the wire in half, but don't crimp it. Keep it in a nice curve (like where you will wrap it around your bottle).
Loop over the bottom of the first bottle, get it in the groove, and twist the wire snugly around, and spread the wires apart.
Put the second bottle next to the first and wrap the ends around the second bottle ending with a snug twist, continue with the third bottle and so on, until you reach your last bottle.
Make an extra twist and bend the ends of the wires toward the mouth of the bottle so they won't poke you.
Repeat from "Bend the wire..." for the opposite side.
And now you have two Snakes.
