Make & Do

Upcycled Wreath

Create your own recycled wreath, using scraps of unwanted fabric or household materials.

You will need:

A paper plate or piece of cardboard cut into a similar shape

Strips of unwanted fabric

A piece of ribbon or twine

Instructions:

1. Cut a large hole in the centre of your plate or card. This will be the frame for your wreath.

2. Tie strips of fabric around the frame, simply tying it into a knot. No glue needed!

3. Continue the ties, until the whole frame has been covered.

4. Knot a piece of ribbon or twine around the wreath. It is now ready to hang!

TIP: Instead of fabric, you could recycle other unwanted material such as bubble wrap or Christmas wrapping paper. See what you can find!
