Easy Kid’s Craft: Autumn Wreath

August 21st, 2008

My daughter made something similar to this for summer, but it was very easy to change it to a fall project.

You’ll need some fall colored artificial leaves, a paper plate (use a stiff plate or you can also use cardboard) and some gold ribbon.

Cut the center out of a paper plate to make a wreath shape.
Punch a hole in the center to tie the ribbon through.
Glue the leaves onto your wreath shape. Cover the paper wreath completely.
Put the ribbon through the hole and tie into a bow for hanging.
If you have any small, fall colored artificial flowers, you can glue a few of those for details.
