"The Red Thread" is a very popular pre-wedding item ♡

When it comes to classic and popular items for photoshoots before or after the ceremony, there's no question...

It's definitely "The Red Thread" ♡

~~It is said that from birth, the little fingers of a man and woman destined to meet are tied together with an invisible "red thread."~~

I think many of you have heard this saying at least once, and just as the words suggest,

"The Red Thread" is perfect for the happy newlyweds who are celebrating their wedding＊

Everyone, where and how are you preparing?

"The Red Thread" is a very versatile item that looks great with both wedding dresses and traditional attire＊

Scrolling through Instagram, most brides seem to gather the materials and DIY their red thread themselves ♡

While many brides may have a general idea of how to make it, there are also those who want to see a proper DIY method before starting the task!

@ab.hapi_wd from marry has kindly shared a detailed tutorial on how to make "The Red Thread" (thank you!), so I’m happy to introduce it here＊

Here’s the list of materials you will need＊

☑ Red thread (string)

☑ Stainless steel wire

☑ Nippers

☑ Pen

☑ Scissors

☑ One sheet of A4 paper

You can find everything at 100 yen shops like Seria or Daiso ♩

The length and thickness of the string can be adjusted to your preference! The thicker the string, the more it stands out; the thinner it is, the more delicate the impression it gives＊

How to make the Red Thread *Step 1

Write in cursive on the A4 size paper the size of letters you want to create＊

Popular choices include "love," a heart symbol, or initials of names ♡

For brides doing traditional attire photoshoots, the character "寿" (kotobuki, meaning longevity) is recommended ♩

Next, thread the wire through the string!

At this point, consider how much length you want to leave for the handle＊

According to @ab.hapi_wd, she started threading from the end of the string with the intention of tying it to her little finger, so she adjusted the excess length as she went along!

The wire can be easily cut with nippers.

How to make the Red Thread *Step 3

Once you’ve threaded the wire through the red string, shape it according to the letters you wrote on the paper＊

Bending the wire to create natural curves will give it a stylish appearance ♩
