With spring arriving, I wanted to create a fun wreath with the kids to celebrate the arrival of flowers. What was in my head and what was produced was a different story. But it still looks good – just not like the floral wreath I had envisioned!
The best thing about this wreath is that you will own most of the items. Cupcake cases, round stickers, glue and a paper plate are really all you need to create this easy craft. Depending on the colour scheme you choose for Christmas this year, these could make a welcome decoration addition to the house.
