Halloween Ribbon Wreath

This is the fastest wreath you will ever put together!  This ribbon-wrapped wreath can be made for any holiday or special event – I love this because the possibilities are endless. It looks great hanging on the door, also hanging in a window, or on the back of the hostess chair, and even as a centerpiece with a glass hurricane and candle in the center of it.

The hardest part of this whole project is picking out which ribbons to use!

Materials:

  • Foam wreath
  • straight pins (I use .75″ sequin pins, you get 300 for $1)
  • Ribbon (a fun mixture of  patterns and solids in varying widths)

 

Gather up your ribbon and let’s get started! Cut your ribbons into 6 1/2″ pieces (that is the size of my wreath when the ribbon is wrapped around, check your size before cutting).  You will need about 40 pieces of ribbon (save some for a bow).  Start wrapping, using pins to hold in place.  I overlapped some and even added ribbon pieces on top of others.

Be creative and have fun.  If you want to add a bow, use the pins to hold it in place.  By adding a ribbon piece to the back, use the pins to hold it so you can make a hanger.

Now this is what I love – when you are finished displaying the wreath,  pull the pins out and save, put ribbon pieces (and bow) in a bag with the label and save for next year.  Your wreath is ready for the next holiday….or birthday….baby shower….like I said, endless possibilities.
