Yarn Wreath Tutorial

Materials:

• yarn
• styrofoam ring  (at JoAnn for $4.99, minus my 40% off coupon)
• glue gun
• scissors
• felt for flowers and leaves
• optional: Christmas ornament or embellishment

Total cost: $8

Hot glue the end of the yarn to the back of your ring. The first part of this project is the longest, but it’s easy: wrap the yarn around and around until it’s all covered. It took me about 45 minutes to cover the whole wreath.

Now for the fun part; I decorated my wreath with peppermint candy ornaments and hot glued some felt flowers I made by following these flowers tutorials here and here. I also cut out some leaf shapes and used a light green colored pencil to draw the leaves veins.

There are so many creative wreath designs, I hope you loved this one.  Making a wreath is a fun and easy project, a nice way to reuse old ornaments, and a great gift idea.
