Interchangeable Wreath plus May/June Wreath attachment


Supplies:
1 foam wreath form (size of your choice)
1 skein of yarn ( in a color that will work with anything)
felt ( pink and blue and white)
lace (optional) 
embroidery floss
Hot glue gun



 Take your wreath form and hot glue the end of your yarn to the back. Wrap the yarn around the wreath form 2 times, the first time roughly and the second time making sure there are no gaps. 


Yay!


Now cut 2 strips of your blue or pink felt roughly 5x20 inches and fold in half. With a needle and thread, sew big running stitches down the non folded side and pull until it's ruffled. Wrap it around itself and secure with hot glue every inch or so.


With your other color of felt, cut five 5 inch circles. Fold them in half , then half again and put a dab of hot glue at the base. Glue 4 of them together by the sides and glue the last one right on top. Spread the top one our until it looks natural. 


Add a piece of lace if you want to.


With your white felt, cut a piece that fits the curve of your wreath.


Attach your flowers to it. Cut 2 pieces of embroidery floss 1 1/2 to 2 feet long and attach them at the ends.


Now you can tie it to your wreath and it's easy to change out! 


Watch for a 4th of July attachment later this month!
