Looking for something different to adorn your door this Christmas? Follow our how-to guide to make this elegant paper wreath that will add a festive feel to any room…
You will need:
Thick wire and wire cutters
Paper
Scissors
Washi tape
Glitter glue
Step 1: Make a circle of wire to your desired size. Using real leaves as templates draw and cut multiple leaves out of white paper and fold down the middle.
Step 2: Secure the ends of the leaves to the wire circle with tape and add glitter glue to the tips for some added sparkle.
Step 3: Ta-dah! Hang your wreath on your door, prop it up on your mantlepiece or gift it to make some-one’s Christmas extra glittery (I mean who wouldn’t want that?!).
Inspired by our festive DIY? Keep your eye on the blog for more Christmas crafts coming your way this week!
