St. Patrick's Day Wreath
This is the cutest small St. Patrick’s Day wreath.
You will need:
- Mini wreath frame
- Green fuzzy sticks
- Shamrock scatter foam
- Green ribbon(optional)
- Hot glue
This wreath may be any size. I chose to make a mini wreath for this project. The wire frame for this little wreath is 8 1/4" in diameter. The nice thing about a mini wreath is that it requires fewer supplies, and you may place it anywhere.
Step 1
Wrap green fuzzy stick through and around wire lines. Choose any pattern you wish. I picked light green, and three dark green stripes. The shiny ones give a good effect as well.

Continue to wrap fuzzy sticks around and through metal wires.
Shiny ones add a nice touch.
Complete the entire wreath with fuzzy sticks.
