FELT WREATH TUTORIAL

This is a very quick and easy project.  Just gather your materials together, pop in a good movie and make this wreath in about 45 minutes, start to finish.

List of materials:

2 pieces each, 9"x12" felt in 5-6 different colors

Straight pins

9" Styrofoam ring

Something approximately 2.5" round to use as a template

(I used a seasoning salt container)

scissors

 1. Trace circles onto felt and cut out.  These don't have to be perfectly round as you can see by mine.

I cut approximately 20-24 circles of each color.

2.  This is what I used as my circle template. 

 3. This is the only shot I got of the wreath form which is what the back looks like.  You could wrap the form with ribbon before putting the felt pieces on if you want a more finished look.

 4.  Fold the circle in half, kind of like a taco shell.

 5. Fold over again.

6. Push straight pin in close to the bottom point. (Please excuse the black looking fingers, I was painting earlier.)

 7.  Push into foam.  After the felt is in kind of fluff open to help hide the pin.

8.  Here is the finished wreath that Randy won.
