This is a fun project that your kids can help out with. It is made from materials around your home and yard. It's perfect for fall!

Approximate Time: an autumn afternoon

Supplies:

  • lots of sticks
  • cardboard
  • hot glue gun and lots of glue sticks
  • brown paper bag or something to wrap your cardboard in
  • fabric scraps cut into strips

Instructions:

  1. Have your kiddos help you with the stick hunting. You need "a lot" of sticks!
  2. Break your sticks into various lengths. They can be all similar or have a few longer like mine.
  3. Cut a hoop out of an old cardboard box using a medium sized mixing bowl and a smaller bowl for tracing.
  4. Cover your hoop in brown paper bag or burlap or anything you want.
  5. Hot glue the sticks around the cardboard hoop. It takes tons of sticks and tons of glue. It does not have to be perfect.
  6. Use some fabric scraps to make some pretty twisted fabric flowers and glue onto your wreath.
  7. Hang with another strip of fabric, glued to the back.
