Christmas Craft Projects - Holly Wreath

What you need: 16" red rattan mat; 4" x 4" x 2" Styrofoam
block; 12 plastic holly picks; red chenille stem; 2 green chenille stems; 2 yds.
of 2" wide red velvet ribbon.
Instruction:
Step 1: Place the block of Styrofoam in the center of the mat. Bend one green
chenille stem into a U shape. Push the two loose ends through the Styrofoam and
through the rattan mat. Twist the two ends together in order to secure the
Styrofoam to the mat.
Step 2. Cut the plastic holly picks to 4 inches in length,. Insert the picks
on the four sides of the Styrofoam block first; then fill in the center of
the Styrofoam block.
Step 3. Make a bow from the red ribbon and secure the center with the
red chenille stem. To attach the bow below the holly, push the chenille stem
through the mat and twist the ends together.
Step 4. Use the other green chenille stem to form a hook at the top, on the
back of the mat.
You can try many variations of this craft by using pinecones, angels, fruits
and other small picks instead of the holly.
