You may be thinking I’m a little obsessed with wreaths. Well, you are right, because I love wreaths!
In fact, the girls were studying fall, and I just came up with this one when we were playing in the leaves.
First, take a big piece of cardboard and measure out the size of your wreath
It should look something like this
If you used a free box from USPS, and you make 2 wreaths, this is what the leftovers might look like
After you cut out the middle holes, trace out your wreath onto the fabric of your choice
Get lots of glue...
Fold the ends of the material over, and glue
Attach the ribbon to the back of the wreath with staples (will be covered later) and glue
Gather leaves from your front yard!
Arrange them however you wish... use as many or as few leaves as you want! Glue leaves on, and press firmly
Finished product!
Now, I know this craft won’t win any prizes, but it was quick and fun, and definitely frugal! I used items I already had at home.
If I were “planning” this craft, I would have purchased brown material, added a brown ribbon, and made felt letters to spell the word, “fall,” to hang from the bottom of the wreath.
The girls really enjoyed this project, and if you need a quick and easy fall-themed craft, here it is! {Plus, it is cute to hang anywhere!}
It wins a prize in my book! And your girls make it even cuter. Give them kisses for me! 🙂
