- Cut circles of 2 cm radius from the colour craft paper. We have used a light and dark shade of green paper.
- Take a paper circle and slightly fold into half and pinch only on one end.
- Apply glue at this pinch mark and stick to make a petal shape. Do this with all the circles.
- Cut out a ring of inner radius 7 cm and outer radius 9 cm from the cardboard sheet.
- Paste two petals of the same colour with the pinch mark towards the inside as shown.
- Similarly paste two petals of the other colour paper adjacent to the previous ones.
- Do this till the whole ring is covered, alternating between the two colours.
- This completes a basic DIY Christmas wreath.
- To give a final touch, make a bow out of the satin ribbon.
- Paste this bow on top of the paper wreath.
- Use double sided tape or a loop made of ribbon to at the back of the wreath for hanging.
