Winter Rosy Wool Wreath

I love Winter decorations that can stay up until Valentine's Day.  They are more versatile, fit several decor styles and can go up the day after Thanksgiving and stay up until February.  Creative Passage has posted a delightful wreath that you and your kids can make for teachers, grandparents, friends of the family - anyone will love it. And it's versatile enough for Christmas, Hanukkah or just for Winter. I asked Ellen if she would make up a tutorial for my readers and she has kindly agreed to share it with us.  I'm going to post a picture and the supplies needed and then you can go to her blog for the instructions.  

(Isn't it darling?)

Felted Wool Rose Wreath Tutorial

Hot Glue Gun & Glue Sticks

Scissors

Circle Patterns (she used bowls)

Wool or Regular Felt

Marking Pen

Grapevine Wreath

Shiny or Fuzzy Snowflakes from

The Dollar Tree (get 'em cheap)

This would be a great family activity.  The older kids can help make the roses and the little ones can help put everything together.  They can hand you the supplies as you need them - obviously the glue gun is to dangerous for them.  Enjoy - I'd love to see your finished projects!
