Ribbon Wreath

 This wreath is beautiful and simple to make.
 
What you'll need:
-Three Spools of Wire Ribbon (all the same color or three different colors.  8 yards each, 24 yards total)
-12" medal ring

The how to:
-Tie the ribbon onto the ring, alternating colors as you go.  Tie each bow before cutting it off the spool. You will tie about 36 bows.

 

-Once all bows are tied on, evenly space them around the ring and reshape the ribbons. Pull them forward until it has a nice full look.   Trim any long pieces or strings.

    That really looks nice. If I ever stay home for Christmas, I'll have to give it a try.

    I think this is such a cute and simple wreath. I may even try it with my elementary students who love making crafts.

    About how big would you say each one of the bows are? I did 3 full spools of 30ft ribbon and it didn't fill the hoop :(
