Ok! Let’s get start at the beginning, a very good place to start. 

Supplies:

• Scissors
• Pipe cleaners, ahem Chenille Stems
• Wire Wreath frame
• Assorted coordinating ribbon – your choice
• Decorative items
• Hot glue gun
• Hot glue
• Stapler

Step 1- Let’s make ribbon loops!

I have said it before – if you can make a loop and pinch the middle – you can make a bow. This wreath idea is basically lots of bows tucked close together. Let’s cut our ribbon into 16 in. strips. Make a circle with the ribbon and secure. In the post on How to wrap gifts beautifully, I used tape to secure. Another option is using as stapler.

 

Step 2 – Pinch and layer

Now that we have tons of loops, let’s start creating bows. Take your loop and pinch the middle if you used tape- skip this step. If you used a stapler, ya gotta pinch and use a chenille stem to secure (cut your stems in half).

Begin laying 3 loops in a criss-cross pattern. Use a chenille stem to hold the 3 loops together. This will create a simple bow.

 

Step 3 – Create the wreath

Take the bows and secure them to the wire wreath frame. Use the two middle rings to attach the bows to the frame. Continue this step until the wire frame is full and fluffy.

Step 4 – Add the extras

The wreath will be lovely on its own but adding a little “Merry Christmas” to it is always appropriate.
