IN PACKAGE

  • Wreath form

  • Book pages

  • Leaf templates

  • Instructions 

YOU SUPPLY

  • Hot glue gun & glue sticks

  • Scissors, X-acto knife

  • Pencil

  • Twine or ribbon, about 6” 

DIRECTIONS

  1. Carefully separate the pages from the book provided with a scissors or X-acto knife. Some of these will be used whole to cover the wreath form and others will be cut to become leaves. 

  2. Leaf stencil: Cut out leaf template in desired size. 

  3. Trace the leaf stencil on to as many pages as desired to give a full look to your wreath. Cut them out; you’ll need about 75 leaves.  

  4. Wrap the wreath form with the whole pages, using hot glue to adhere them.  

  5. Hot glue each leaf to the form, being careful to have all the leaves move in the same direction around the wreath. This will make the wreath look more natural.  TIP: Vary the angle of the leaves for more dimension. 

  6. Hot glue a loop of twine or ribbon to the back of the wreath for hanging.
