How to Make a Paper Christmas Wreath Step by Step
Step 1
Craft the Foundation with Kraft Card
Begin by taking a piece of kraft card and drawing a 20cm diameter circle. Inside this, draw another circle with a diameter of 17cm. Carefully cut along the traced lines, creating the perfect foundation for your wreath.
Step 2
Hand-trace Magic for a Personalized Touch
Add a personal touch by tracing your child's hand onto the chipboard, creating a unique template. While this may be the trickiest part, ensuring your child remains still, you can also opt for our provided template from the Christmas kit for convenience.
Step 3
Multiply the Magic with Green Cardstock Hands
Trace and cut out 20-25 hands from green-coloured cardstock using your hand template. Consider turning the template over for half of them for added texture and variety, ensuring a dynamic arrangement when assembling your wreath.
Step 4
Arrange and Attach for a Whimsical Effect
Assemble the cut-out hands around the kraft card base, arranging them in a circular pattern. Glue each hand securely, ensuring a whimsical and lively display. This step is where the magic truly comes alive, and your wreath takes shape.
Step 5
Finishing Touches: Pops of Color and Elegance
Add vibrant red and green pom-poms to complete your festive wreath for a pop of colour. Tie a ribbon to your wreath, creating an elegant finish. Secure everything in place with a touch of glue, and voila – your DIY wreath is ready to adorn your home with holiday cheer.
