This wreath can be made using a single wire form (available at most craft
stores) or you can make your own form by bending a hanger into a circle
and snipping off the hook. Unwind the top carefully using needlenose pliers
and straighten as much as possible.
You will need:
3 1/2" wide lace trim, in contrasting colors (the kind with holes
down the middle)
Circular wire form
Christmas florals
Ribbon
Hot glue
Cut the lace in 1 yard lengths and layer. The sample here uses only two
colors, but if you really want to get fancy, you can layer more colors,
and use a narrower lace for the top layers.
Thread your wire form in and out through the holes of the lace until
completely covered. You don't need to thread through each hole, just enough
to hold the lace in place.
Once the lace is on the wire form, twist the ends of the wire together
and hand stitch the ends of the lace together, or secure with a dab of
glue.
Use hot glue to attach florals, ribbon and other decorations to your
wreath.
Just about anything can be used to decorate your wreath. Use things
that are colorful, sparkle, or just things that please your eye.
