Making your own fuzzy winter wreath is so easy and doesn’t cost much at all. In fact, most supplies come from Dollar Tree!
Over the years, Dollar Tree has really grown its craft section, making it incredibly easy to make a variety of home decor crafts.
It’s also interesting what you can come up with using some things NOT from the craft section. For example: let’s talk about mop heads and mop covers. Here are a few crafts that I’ve made from Dollar Tree Mops:
- Easter Bunny Yarn Wreath
- Dollar Store Yarn Pumpkins
- Valentine Heart Wreaths
- FOUR Crafts with Easter Bunny Wreath Forms
There are some pretty incredible creations that come from Dollar Tree supplies and materials. Keep reading to see just how easy it is to make your own winter wreath using microfiber mop covers.

Fuzzy Winter Wreath
This fuzzy winter wreath is the perfect wintertime decoration that will last far beyond the holiday season!
Materials
- 2 white microfiber mop covers (Dollar Tree)
- 1 8-inch metal wreath form (come in 2-packs from Dollar Tree)
- faux greenery
- 4 large wooden craft sticks (Dollar Tree)
- masking tape
- DecoArt Home Decor antique wax
- DecoArt acrylic craft paint in colors warm white and avocado
Tools
- hot glue gun and glue sticks
- pencil
- miter shears or heavy-duty scissors
- fine point paint brushes
- small paint tray
Instructions
- Watch the video tutorial before you begin, and let that be your visual guide for this project.
- Cover the wreath form with the microfiber mop covers. Do so by removing the tags, placing the wreath onto the mop cover, and applying a generous amount of hot glue to secure it in place.
- Assemble a wooden church for the centerpiece (if you're not religious, I also provide a gingerbread house option).
- Cut pieces for the wooden church: start with 4 large craft sticks. Using angle shears, cut the tops off at a 45 degree angle. Then, assemble the pieces together to create a church building and secure the craft sticks together using a piece of masking tape. Trace over the bottom edge of the tape with a pencil. This will tell you exactly where to make your cuts to create a level bottom to your church. Trim on the lines of each craft stick.
- Assemble the wooden church: Take one of the reject pieces and hot glue it across the 4 craft sticks to secure them together (this will be the back of the church). Use another reject piece to create a church door (may need to trim down some).
- Stain and paint the wooden church: Stain the entire craft stick church, including the door. Allow it to dry completely. Using the non-brush end of a paintbrush, dip it in the white paint and make little dots in a wreath-like shape. Paint a small light green bow. Dry brush the door white, and add semi-circles along the roof line.
- Hot glue the lambs ear and church to the bottom and center of the wreath.
