SUPPLIES & TOOLS:
-
Foam core
X-ACTO blade
Hot glue gun & glue
Twig bunches
Snips/shears (To cut twigs)
Eucalyptus stems
Wire cutters
Compass or something approximate shape to trace
pencil
DIRECTIONS:
- Using a compass or a bowl (something round), trace a circle onto the foam board with a pencil, approximately 6" in diameter. Cut the circle out with an X-ACTO blade.
- Freehand or use a compass or object to trace a 4" circle inside the 6" circle you just cut. Cut out the inner circle leaving a 2" ring of foam core. This will be the base of the wreath. Adjust the size as desired.
- Trim twigs to the desired length and hot glue them around the ring of foam core, so that they taper smaller out from the center. Leave a hole in the center.
- Once all the sticks are in place and covering the entire foam-core ring decorate the inner portion with eucalyptus, gluing in place with hot glue.
