Turn on the hot glue gun and have it at the ready! Cut a couple branches off your Christmas tree. This is where the garden shears come in handy. We always have to cut a couple branches off at the bottom of the tree so we can fit it in the stand, these are the branches I use to create the wreath. Get out the metal hoop; find the seam of the hoop so it can be covered. Start placing the branches in your preferred pattern on the lower half of the hoop so you have an idea of where to place everything. Cut the branches if needed so they fit nicely on your wreath. How to attach the branches around the hoop Place one branch on the hoop, line it up so there are a couple points where the hoop and branch intersect. Turn the hoop and branch over so you can work on attaching the branch from the back. Use the fishing line to secure the branch to the hoop. Where the branch and hoop intersect tie the fishing line in a knot around the two pieces. Pull the fishing line taut so the branch is flush with the hoop. Dab a bit of hot glue on to the knot and let it sit until dry. Repeat as many times as you like. Attach the next branch and repeat the steps above. Continue to add and secure your branches until you have all the branches you like. Add the Bling I decided to keep the Holiday Wreath really simple this year and added a modest bow to complete the look. However, you can get really creative and add bells, ornaments, stars, etc.... Just remember you cannot hot glue anything directly to the hoop as it will not stick. But you can use hot glue to attach to the Christmas tree branches and use the fishing line method as well to secure your additional bling. Happy Crafting!
