Halloween
Fabric Wreath Making for Kids | Make Your Own Spooky Decorations
A fun
project for kids! This Halloween wreath making craft is easy and uses recycled
fabric and spooky decorations glued on! A great way to recycle an old dressing
gown, fleecy blanket, old bedding, etc!
This
is a great way for kids to craft and decorate for Halloween on a budget, and
costing very little if using items you have around the house. A great way to recycle!
Materials
needed:
·
Plastic Tube & Tape, or Wire Coat Hanger,
or wire wreath shape (30 cm)
·
Old fabric
·
Scissors
·
Ruler
·
Halloween Decorations
·
Hot Glue Gun or wire
Easy
Steps:
1. Make
or buy a circle shape approx. 30cm in diameter.
You can make a circle wreath shape using plastic tubing or a metal coat
hanger and shape into a circle. In the video, I'm using recycled plastic tubing
and I taped it together to make a circle.
2.
Cut up old fabric into 8 inch by 1 inch pieces / strips. Don't worry if the
fabric frays - this adds to the spooky look! Or purchase fabric of choice.
Tip: You
can recycle old bedding, clothes or blankets for this project. Fleece and
flannel work great! Simply cut into 9x2inch pieces. I've cut up an old tiger onesie
and used some old curtains.
4.
One by one, tie the fabric pieces to your circle wreath shape. Tie fabric as if
the 1st step of tying your shoe lace. (No need to knot it.)
5.
Push the fabric close together as you go, turning in different angels, and keep
tying on more fabric! Until you get around the whole circle.
6. Tie
or glue on Halloween decorations of choice. If using a glue gun, adult
supervision is needed!
Enjoy!
Perhaps add battery operated lights to your wreath!
