Acorn Wreath
I was standing outside enjoying the day last fall, when I noticed little acorns falling off the tree. I started collecting them in a shoe box thinking I could use them for something and it turned out to be a very lovely but creative idea. Of course, I suggest getting a wreath hanger because it is very heavy.
Parental supervision is recommended.
This project is rated AVERAGE to do.
What You Need
Acorns
Wicker wreath
Hot glue gun
Glue sticks
Newspaper
Flowers or other decoration
How To Make It
First, spread the newspaper on a flat surface. Lay your wreath down flat. Heat your glue gun.
Next, starting in the middle of the wreath begin gluing the bottom of the acorn. Place the glued part of the acorn in the middle of the wreath and stand the acorn straight up. Make 1 row in a straight line going all the way around the wreath. Repeat the process from top to bottom with the wreath still laying flat.
Then decorate with flowers, bows, or even holiday ornaments. Be sure not to leave any open spaces except in the back. The back of the wreath shouldn't have any acorns on it so when you lay it down it is flat.
