[Easy] Handmade Christmas Wreath Ideas (21–30)
Fruit net wreath
Let’s make a colorful and cute wreath that makes use of the mesh pattern of fruit nets.
First, cut cardboard into a ring, apply glue to the base, and attach the fruit nets.
Once the wreath base is ready, add the small decorations to finish.
Since the cardboard base will show through the gaps in the net, keep the net color in mind and decide the cardboard color in advance.
The key is to be mindful of the overall color balance—such as the color you paint on the cardboard, the color of the nets you use, and the colors of the decorations.
Three-dimensional wreath made of colored construction paper
How about making a unique 3D wreath out of colored construction paper as a Christmas craft you can enjoy with your child? First, draw lines at 1 cm intervals on green construction paper.
Next, fold the paper in half and make slits along the guide lines.
Finally, roll it into a tube shape and glue it together, and your accordion-style wreath is complete! You can also use red construction paper to make berries and ribbons.
Its unique look is sure to delight kids.
Try making it as a family, or use it for preschool and kindergarten activities.
Wreath of decorative balls
How about incorporating warm, cozy materials into your decorations to take the edge off the winter chill? If you use pom-pom balls you can pick up at a 100-yen shop, you can easily make a mini wreath that feels warm and inviting.
The process is simple: thread a needle, then string the pom-poms onto the thread.
If you leave gaps between the balls, it won’t form a neat circle, so the key is to connect them closely together.
After that, just decorate with ribbons, bells, and the like, and your mini wreath is complete.
It looks festive on its own, but it would also work well as one of the decorations on a regular-sized wreath or a Christmas tree.
Bead wreath
How about making a quick mini wreath using beads? Even though it’s small when finished, it still conveys the Christmas atmosphere.
Attach wire to a base ring, then thread Christmas-colored beads onto the wire.
Once you’ve added enough beads to cover the wire, wrap it around the ring.
The key to creating a sturdy, eye-catching wreath is to get creative with the bead sequence and the way you wrap the wire.
If you make a bow with gold beads and attach it, it will further enhance the Christmas wreath vibe.
Preserved flower wreath
When we think of wreaths, we often picture using plant vines, which also pair nicely with flowers.
Incorporating preserved flowers can make the arrangement look more vibrant and allow you to enjoy it longer than using fresh blooms.
The method involves inserting small flowers into a ring-shaped base.
A key point is being particular about the colors you use—creating a gradient within the same color family can give the piece a cohesive look.
It’s also important to insert the flowers so the base doesn’t show.
Before placing them, cluster the flowers closely together, and be mindful to fill any gaps with smaller flowers as you work.
