Mini Christmas Wreath Ornaments

Supplies you will need:

2 pipe cleaners (1 light green and 1 dark green)
1 mini pipe cleaner (red)
twine, yarn, or ribbon

Step 1 – Make the Wreath

To begin, twist the 2 pipe cleaners to combine them together as shown below. Twist along the entire length of the pipe cleaners.

Once the 2 pipe cleaners are twisted together, fold them in half and twist again.

Next, twist the ends of the pipe cleaners together to form a ring, as shown below.

Step 2 – Add the Bow

Where the ends of the pipe cleaners are twisted together, add the mini pipe cleaner and twist it onto the ring. This will help keep the wreath held together, and will also be used to create the decorative bow.

To make the bow, take each end of the mini pipe cleaner and form a loop. Next, twist the loops together. You should have something that looks like this photo below.
