An Easy Felt and Styrofoam Welcome Wreath


Hello and welcome to another fun craft with Lisa from Lisa’s Creative Niche! Nothing is more inviting to me than a wreath on ones front door, but sometimes I feel like I am putting one up only to have to replace it quickly for another season. Well today’s project is a Fall wreath that can stay up September through November ( and you could even pass it off for Christmas by adding a few Christmas decorations to it! )…

Things you’ll need:
Full round styrofoam wreath
Cotton butcher craft twine
Felt
Glue gun and glue sticks
Corsage Pins
Ribbon

Things to do:
1. Start by wrapping your butcher craft twine around the entire wreath as shown below. To keep it in place use your glue gun only on the backside of your wreath. ( Note: this can take a little time to do, but it so worth it. And don’t worry if you have overlap at the end you will be able to cover this up with your ribbon at the end )

2. Make your felt flowers by hand trimming vertical strips of your felt. Keep them thin, and know that the longer your strip is the bigger your flower will be. Roll these in to give you a cinnamon roll looking flower. To make really big flowers I rolled first one strip then glued another strip where the first one ended and continued to roll.

3. Hand cut leaves with felt, place them as you wish on your wreath and stick them on using the corsage pin in the center of each flower. Add your ribbon and display it for everyone to see!
