How to make a DIY Spring Wreath for front door
Materials:
- 32 wide craft sticks
- 7” x 7” piece of heavyweight cardboard
- Ruler
- Pencil
- Scissors
- Glue gun
- Small paint brushes
- Craft paint in the bright colors: pink, yellow, turquoise and purple.
- Roll of bright green ribbon about 2” wide
- Flower embellishment a little larger than 2”
Directions:
- Cut the cardboard into a ring that is 4” across on the inside, 1” wide, and 6” to each of the outside edges.
- Using the glue gun, begin to attach the craft sticks to the cardboard circle. You want the finished wreath to be uniform and even, so place two sticks opposite each other as you go.
- Keep adding sticks until they go evenly all the way around the circle.
- Take more craft sticks and adhere them to the top of the craft sticks where they meet (as shown) and continue until all the spaces are covered.
- Once all the sticks are in place, paint every fourth stick turquoise.
- Paint every middle stick yellow.
- Paint the remaining sticks pink and purple until all the sticks are painted.
- Cut two pieces of green ribbon that are approximately 4 ½” long. Then, make diagonal cuts on one end of each piece.Glue these to the bottom of the inner circle of the wreath.
- Use the glue gun to secure the green ribbon to the inside of the wreath bunching it up as you go (as shown).
- Use a length of string approximately 10” – 12” long and create a bow shape. Use the glue gun to secure the pieces in the middle and glue it above the two straight pieces that are hanging down.
- Add the flower embellishment to the center of the bow using the glue gun.
- Hang your wreath!
