Spring Wreaths

Easter is approaching fast and I’m not even done with my holiday décor! Oh well, guess I’ll just have to keep it up longer…LOL!


What you need:
Screamers or ribbon
Cardboard or poster board
Two round things, on smaller than the other (I used plates)
Pencil or marker
Scissors
Embellishments (flowers, buttons, whatever you’d like to use)
Glue

Directions:
1. Trace your large and small circle onto the poster board or cardboard.
2. Grab your scissors and cut out the circles.
3. Pop out that center circle, and voila! You have a wreath form!


4. Grab some streamer, dab a little glue and start wrapping it around the wreath form, like in the photo below.



5. Wrap your streamer until you’re back at your starting point, then cut it off of the spool, leaving a tail. The side with the tail is the back of your wreath, and you want to tuck that tail through the closest loop of streamer and glue
6. Turn your wreath back over. If you used wide ribbon like I did, your last loop is not going to look so hot, but don’t despair! A couple of fabric flowers will fix that right up.
7. Arrange the flowers in one corner of your wreath, and glue them into place.

8. That’s it you’re done!

  1. Do you have an email if I have questions? I think your site and creativity are amazing. You use the cutest colors and design the most adorable things. Thumbs up to you Big Time! I want a few PDFs that are older items. Is that possible?
