Instructions

You can use any cardboard for this Christmas craft project but using recycled boxes is a great way to recycle.

Start by printing out the pattern below. Christmas wreath pattern.

You can enlarge the pattern if you would like a larger wreath or decrease it for a smaller Christmas tree ornament style wreath.

Cut the pattern out of the paper and then attach the paper to your cardboard pieces and cut them out. Next using the same pattern pin it to your felt pieces. Cut your felt out slightly larger than the pattern to allow for stitching.

Glue your felt pieces down on to the cardboard ring. Finish it off by sewing around the edges for a neat finish. If you do not wish to sew the edges you can glue on a thin edging or cord.

Attach the ribbon for hanging and some holly leaves or a poinsettia flower to finish it off.
