A Holiday Wreath

missmanors · #1 12-17-2008, 08:38 PM

Here is a wreath that I thought would be nice to make for the holidays, and could be changed for other seasons simply by changing the color of the ribbons being used.

foam wreath form
silver spray paint
wide ribbon in assorted colors
T-pins
scissors

Spray-paint foam wreath form silver, and allow to thoroughly dry.
Cut ribbon into 4-inch pieces. Gather ends of ribbon together to create a loop and attach loops to wreath form with T-pins, making sure to pin the ribbon loops closely to each other and to also cover the front and sides of the wreath form.

That looks really pretty. Easy to make too! It would be very inexpensive to make and you could sell them and make a nice profit. Way to go!

Thank you all for the compliments! Now you have me thinking of ways to make some extra cash, lol.

I love crafting and some things that are beautiful, are so easy to make. This is one that is easy, inexpensive (especially as I can usually find ribbon that is on sale to use) and it could be used for different seasons and holidays.
