With Christmas over and the New Year approaching, I am working on putting away my Christmas décor while putting up some new festive pieces. I am also absolutely obsessed with making wreaths for each holiday and season of the year to hang around my house. I recently acquired some black and gold washi tape that works perfectly for New Year’s crafts. After wrapping the tape around a foam wreath, I added some black and gold crafts stick stars and some star sequins to make two festive wreaths for the New Year.
Materials
- Foam wreath
- Black and gold washi tape
- Craft sticks
- Hot glue
- Silver glitter ribbon
- Star sequins
- Black and gold acrylic paint
- Paint brushes
Instructions
- Wrap the washi tape around the foam wreath.
- Glue five craft sticks into star shapes using the hot glue.
- After the glue dries, paint the craft stick stars with gold and black acrylic paint.
- After the paint dries, glue the gold and black stars onto the taped foam wreath.
- Weave the silver glitter ribbon through the stars and around the wreath, securing the ribbon to the back of the wreath with hot glue.
- Tie and glue a piece of ribbon around the foam circle from which to hang the wreath.
- Attach the star sequins to the wreath with hot glue.
- Display the New Year’s wreath craft.
