Yarn Christmas Wreath: Gather Materials

This week, I will be teaching you how to make a Christmas wreath made out of yarn to adorn your door. I made this one last night and am in love with it! I can't wait to display it on my door this year.

Each day of this week, I will post an article with steps to make this wreath, or one like it. Today, we're going to focus on gathering materials. I suggest purchasing your supplies at Hobby Lobby, but you can purchase them at any craft store you frequent.

Materials Needed:

• 2 Colors of yarn (190 yards each). I chose baby purple and off white.

• 3 Colors of felt, with 1 variation. 6 pieces total. I chose blue, purple, and grey. I purchased a light and dark piece of each color.

• 1 "centerpiece" I chose a purple bird. You may use a bird, or any other (non breakable) item that matches your materials.

• 3-4 Christmas swags that are made of your colors. Make sure that at least two of them have greenery. I choose a fuchsia and purple beaded glittery twig, a glittered apple with leaves, and purple balls with glittery leaves. 

• 1 Straw Wreath. I purchased one size 18"

• Glue gun and glue. 

Want to know the best part? Your materials should only cost you $25-$30. These wreaths sell on Etsy for $60-$90. So go gather your materials and meet me back here tomorrow for the first day of assembly instructions.
