White Snowball Wreath :: This year’s Advent wreath tutorial

Hello There,

so nice of you to join me and have a look at my annual advent wreath making.

For this year I felt all cozy and cuddly and I knew it needed to be something soft. After I cut up my favorite pullover last year it seems to be a trend.

My frequent readers know I am such a sucker for snow. And since it will be a while in my part of the world until we have some – if any at all – I decided on a white snowball wreath this year.

It’s another simple one and probably a great DIY for kids as well. Anyhow I made a tiny tutorial.

It’s actually so simple that it feels weird to write the steps down but here we go.

1. Gather your supplies: Cotton balls, wreath form and glue.
2. Glue cotton balls on the bottom outside of the wreath form.
3. Glue cotton balls on the bottom inside of the wreath form.
4. Fill the remaining gap with cotton balls. Don’t do it all symmetrical but mix it up.
5. Enjoy your wreath.

Be careful not leave it unattanded if you are thinking about adding a candle. I only put a big one in the middle but I think I might use it as a door wreath.

What I learned:

• Don’t use a glue gun and a foam wreath form.
  The hot glue eats it away
• Actually use regular glue its fine and it will stick.

I am quite happy with the outcome. Please share if you decide to do your own version of this wreath.

Happy pre-advent DIYing,

Tobia
