How to make the wreath ?
1. Cut 1 inch (2,5cm) stripes of crepon paper. Wrap it around the polystyrene wreath. Glue step by step. Alternatively, do the same with a ribbon !
2. Print and cut the branches and holly leaves templates. Cut in the different papers 15 large branches, 40 average ones, 15 small ones, 4 large holly and 5 small holly leaves. Cut out the vein in the leaves using a cutter.
3. Pin the branches all around the wreath, disposing them harmoniously.
4. Pin the holly leaves inbetween. Stick the small colored pompoms.
Et voilà… Hang ! It’s decorated !
Of course, you can change the colors and patterns… And you ? How are you going to decorate January ?
