Instructions to make a wreath using pine cones and a wire coat hanger. A fun gift idea or a great Christmas decoration.

  • Age Guideline: 5 Years and Up
  • Time Required: 30 minutes (Does not include drying time)

The above age and time guidelines are estimates. This project can be modified to suit other ages and may take more or less time depending on your circumstances.

 

Materials Needed:

Instructions:
Cut the wire coat hanger in half. Use half of the hanger and form it into a circle. Wind the two ends together. I then secured the ends and covered the entire circle with duct tape. This held it together better and gave the pine cones a better surface to stick to!

Once you have your circle formed, glue on the pine comes (a hot glue gun worked best for me). Decorate as desired. I added a ribbon and holly made out of crafting Foam. A added red beads for the holly berries.
