Spring Ribbon Wreath

Try it on your own! Or just contact me and I'd be happy to do it for you! 

Materials needed: foam wreath form, ribbon, flowers, wire, hot glue gun and glue sticks, wire cutter




1.  START!  

You need your foam wreath form and your ribbon.  I bought 2 spools of ribbon that were both 3yd long and I had the perfect amount.  To be safe, error on the side of having extra.. but 2 or 3 wide ribbon spools should be fine depending on the yardage.

I used hot glue to attach the end and then go ahead start wrapping it tight around the foam form.

2.  Layout
Gather all your flowers and other materials and start playing with the layout.  The flowers come off pretty easily from the stem so just carefully pluck them off.  If you're having trouble- grab some wire cutters!  I lay my wreath on the floor and just start playing around with where I want the flowers.





  3. Start hot gluing!
Once you have a layout that you like, start hot gluing.  Be sure to lift it up every once in a while to check how things are going.








4. Extra!

I could stop at this point and love it or now you could add house numbers, a bow, or an initial to the wreath.  I chose the letter "c" and am so happy with the end product!

Here it is-the spring ribbon wreath on our door!

Give it a try- and you'll want to walk in your front door all the time!

Or contact me about purchasing one that I will make especially for you!

leave the "eh" behind
