YOU WILL NEED
- Satin ribbon
- Polystyrene wreath base
- Pins
- Card
- Decorative papers
- Scissors
1 Wind a wide satin ribbon around the wreath base until completely covered, then pin the ends on the back to secure.
2 Cut leaf templates from card – we used three sizes. Trace the templates to cut around 90 leaves from different decorative papers. Fold the paper to cut several leaves at once. Crease each leaf down the centre.
3 Secure groups of leaves to the wreath with pins, working in one direction and overlapping them so the pins are hidden by the tips of the next group (you can adjust their position later). Pin a ribbon to the back of the wreath to create a hanging loop.
