I started out with three different colors of green felt. I used a leaf template to trace over and then began cutting out the little leaves. This was the most time consuming part of the wreath.
After all of the leaves were cut out I started gluing the leaves onto the wreath form. I just used enough glue to get the leaves to sit in place.
Once I had the leaves glued on I started to make the poinsettia. I decided to use a large red and a small white poinsettia. I basically used the same pattern as the leaves just in smaller portions. Once those were cut out I began assembling them. I started by gluing them onto a circle and then layered them to look like a poinsettia. In the middle I added some clear gems to give it some sparkle!
To hang on my door I used a green ribbon and just secured it in place by tying a knot on the bottom.
Enjoy!
