Supplies For DIY Christmas Mini Wreath project
Mini Wreath – we like the look of a twig or grapevine wreath.
Spray Adhesive or glue
Glitter – we like the contrast of silver glitter next to the wood wreath.
Ribbon or Embellishment
Small paintbrush if using glue
You can make multiple wreaths at a time, so plan your supplies accordingly.
How To Make a Small Sparkly Wreath for Christmas
TIP – It is helpful to have some sort of container to place your glitter in so that it doesn’t get all over when you’re applying it to the wreath! We use a plastic lid with deep sides.
White glue or spray adhesive both work well, depending on the look you want. The glue creates a heavier layer of glitter, while the spray adhesive creates a lighter glitter application.
Step 1 – Place a generous amount of glitter onto your work area.
Step 2 – Apply the adhesive to one side of the wreath.
Step 3 – Once the adhesive is in place, press the wreath into the glitter and moved it around to cover one side completely.
If any part was missed, dust your small Christmas wreath with a pinch of glitter.
Once dried, apply an embellishment. This is optional but adds a lot of character.
Since we like the look of berries, we purchased a sprig of sparkly holiday decor and cut a few leaves and berries off. Then hot glued them to the wreath.
If you prefer, a miniature bow would also look nice to finish it off.
