How do you make a button wreath Christmas ornament?
Supplies:
- cardstock
- assorted buttons
- glue
- ribbon
Step 1: Trace a wreath on the cardstock. I used different sized round cookie cutters. You can also use the wide and narrow parts of a glass, different sized jars, or anything else you may have around your house. Then, cut the wreath out.
Step 2: Tie a piece of ribbon to the wreath.
Step 3: Spread glue on the entire surface of the wreath, then add buttons.
Step 4: Tie a bow with the ribbon. Then, glue it to the top of the wreath. Let it dry, then hang it on your tree!
