Halloween wreath for the door
These are the materials we will need to create a Halloween wreath to decorate the front door of the house.
- Cardboard
- Wool black
- EVA rubber orange and also black
- Pipe cleaner orange and black
- Scissors
- Marker
- Gun and sticks of sylicon
Steps to create the Halloween wreath
With the help of a large plate, we draw a circle of the desired diameter on the cardboard .
Using a smaller plate , we draw a smaller circle inside the one we had drawn before.
We cut out the base of the crown on the outside and also cut out the inside part; we need to obtain a cardboard base like the one in the image.
Now we're going to cover the cardboard base with black yarn. We'll wrap the yarn little by little until the cardboard is completely hidden.
Once the base is well covered, cut the thread and tie a knot to secure it. Hide the end under the yarn itself.
Now we're going to create the whiskers , we wrap an orange pipe cleaner around a black one.
Repeat until you have 6 pipe cleaners of both colors.
We tie the whiskers to the sides of the crown, three on each side.
Now we're going to make some cat ears with EVA foam. We'll make the top part with black and the inside part with orange.
Using a silicone gun, we glued the ear pieces together, and when they were ready, we glued them to the crown with a few drops of hot glue.
And that's it! All that's left is to attach a piece of string or yarn to the base of the wreath so you can hang it on your door. You'll impress your neighbors when they pass by your house.
