American Flag Wreath tutorial
Supplies (affiliate links provided for easy online shopping):
- wood craft ring
- blue feather boa
- white ribbon
- red tulle
- glue gun and hot glue
Completely cover the wood craft ring with the feather boa. Secure with hot glue.
crafting tip: Feathers get very sticky and the hot glue will burn your fingertips. Wear latex gloves when using a low temperature glue gun.
Wrap red tulle tightly around 2/3 of the feather wreath. Simply tie a knot with the tulle to attach it to the wreath. Overlap multiple times in each section so the feathers are fully covered.
Cut short pieces of ribbon and tie around the red tulle. Be sure the ribbon is evenly spaced as these will represent the American flag stripes. The ribbon knots should be on the back side so they are not shown when the wreath is hung.
Hang the feathers and stripes American flag wreath on your front door to celebrate patriotic holidays!
