In this step-by-step tutorial, we’ll show you how to create a festive and fun wreath using basic supplies that can be found at your local Dollar Tree store.
This wreath is the perfect way to welcome trick-or-treaters and guests to your home, adding a touch of playful fright to your doorstep. With just a few simple steps and some basic crafting materials, you’ll be able to create a wreath that is sure to impress.
In this tutorial, we’ll guide you through the process of creating a wreath using a foam wreath form, colored mesh, and various decorations from the Dollar Tree store. We’ll also show you how to add in the fun and spooky monster elements that make this wreath truly unique.
Begin by taking your boxwood wreath as the base. If for can not find a boxwood wreath, use a wireframe and wrap it with a boxwood garland.
You can use the card to create the eyes and teeth, but for durability, I suggest using a small round plastic picnic plate. Cut the plate into teeth like wedges by slicing it like a cake slice into the middle.
The eyes can be made using a yellow plate or plastic cup and a marker pen. Secure into place using strong craft glue or hot melt glue.
Finish off your wreath with a bow at the bottom. You can add red paint to your Halloween wreath for the bloody teeth effect if you are looking for a Halloween wreath that is a little scarier.
Ping pong balls also work well for eyes and give the wreath a beady-eye look.
