]]> Last year I started seeing lots of different types of wreaths popping up all over Pinterest and I loved them. This year, I decided to do more than just pin them, I’m going to make some. This Easter Egg wreath is my first and I love how it turned out. I did realize that my wreath holder is somewhere in the attic with the Christmas decorations that haven’t seen the light of day in about 4 years! I need to head to the store and get one for year-round use.

How to make and Easter egg wreath.

Supplies

  • Hot Glue Gun
  • Glue Sticks (you can get both glue gun and glue sticks from Glue Guns Direct shop)
  • Styrofoam Wreath Form (I got the small one from the Dollar Tree)
  • 30 feet of ribbon (I got 4 spools of 3yds each at the Dollar Tree)
  • Plastic Easter Eggs (I got a package of 18 at the Dollar Tree)

Since I already owned my glue gun and glue sticks this craft cost me $6.00=tax to make!

Directions

  1. Heat up the glue gun.
  2. Remove the ribbon from the spool (I found it easier to work with this way).
  3. Add a dot of glue on the inside of the wreath form and adhere the end of the ribbon.
  4. Wrap the ribbon tightly around the form adding a drop of glue on the inside every 3-4 wraps.

  5. When you run out of ribbon, add a dot of glue and overlap the new ribbon with the old and continue until the wreath is completely covered.
  6. Cut about a 2′ piece of ribbon and fold it in half. Wrap the ribbon around the wreath and slip the ends through, tie the loose ends together for hanging.

As you can see it is a pretty easy craft that took me about an hour to make. I love the way it looks on my door and my neighbor commented on it seconds after I put it up!
