Tulle Santa Wreath!! HO HO HO!

My 3rd graders had to make a Santa out of anything for school.

We chose this!! Super easy and we will enjoy these wreaths for YEARS!






SUPPLIES For ONE WREATH:


  • 50 yards of white tulle on a spool, cut to 15-inch pieces (We wrapped our tulle around a cutting board and then cut to make it easy and fast. You could use cardboard also) 
  • 12-inch white wreath form (Hobby Lobby Craft Section)
  • 1 adult-sized Santa hat
  • Pen
  • 1 scrap piece of ribbon, about 3 inches long
  • Needle and thread
  • Hot glue gun
  • Scissors

1) Put hat on Wreath and mark where it fits on the bottom with a Sharpie
2) Tie the pieces of tulle on the wreath in between the marks. Push them close together every few minutes until full.
3) To make mustache tie a few pieces of the tulle together or cut a new longer piece to go all the way around about 3 inches down from the top of the beard then cut your 15 inch pieces in 1/2 and tie them on until mustache is full.
4) Sew a little piece of ribbon to the back of the hat for hanging.
5) Stuff hat with remaining tulle.
6) Hot glue hat on to the wreath and VOILA!!!!!

Easy WREATH! YOU can make ONE TOO!

I saw a similar wreath SOMEWHERE and I cannot remember??

You will need the following supplies

Grapevine wreath $4
Letter of your choice $2
Instant Green Moss $5
Paint/Paintbrush
Scissors
Glue Gun
Ribbon
Exacto knife or razor blade

Paint your letter first just so around the edges it looks finished when hanging on the door.

After paint dries on letter lay it on moss.
I traced with a Sharpie marker and cut around letter with a knife.

I then hot glued moss to letter.
Hot glued letter to wreath.
Added Berries & an old ribbon from a past CHRISTmas present..
And VOILA....
The berries can easily be taken out and replaced with spring or fall nonsense!
LOVE IT!
