Watch this quick video below to see a quick walk-through of making this wreath (with full written instructions below):
Here’s how to make this red, white, and blue dollar store wreath:
- Using acrylic craft paint, carefully paint a few of the wreath form sections blue and white. Let the paint dry completely.
- Next, wrap the wreath form in rope. Secure the ends of the rope with tape, so the ends don’t fray.
- Using wire cutters, separate the individual sprigs of the floral stems.
- Tuck the sprigs into the wreath form, along the bottom and left-hand side.
- Once all of the floral stems are in place, flip the wreath over and carefully bend back the ends of the green stems with a wire cutter. This way the ends of the stems are hidden.
- Secure the bow at the bottom of the wreath with a tie or piece of string.
- Hang your patriotic wreath, and enjoy!
