Time to make a wreath or two.
Mine this year is all about candy and snacks.
Both are quite easy to make, they just take some time.
But hey, what else do you have to do before the holidays, right?
Have fun!
Popcorn Wreath
You will need:
2 large bag of popcorn
1 needle
White thread
4 white paper plates
Craft glue
Start by stringing the popcorn to the thread. You need quite a lot of popcorn for this wreath.
Glue the plates together and cut away the middle.
Twine the threaded popcorn onto the paper plate wreath.
To save time, you can hot glue the popcorn in place instead.
Candy Wreath
You will need:
1 small wire wreath*
4 pounds peppermint candy
Florist wire*
Start by fastening the florist wire to the wreath.
Use two and two candies and fasten them to the wreath by twining the wire around them.
Let the next ones overlap the old ones.
Work yourself all the way around.
Fasten the last ones by twining the wire a few extra turns around the wreath.
*Both can be found at your local florist’s or craft supply store.
