Wreath made out of Plastic Grocery bag flowers

 

Materials needed:

Plastic Grocery bags
Cardboard
Scissors
A small piece of twine for hanging the wreath
Glue
Pista shells  / colourful beads , colourful stones


Method to make Flowers:

Flatten the Plastic bag.


 Cut the handles and the bottom of the plastic bag.Push the pleats out and flatten the bag.


Fold the bag 4 times and cut along the folds. You will now have eight strips of paper.


Accordion fold / Fan fold the strips.


Trim the ends either angled for a spiked effect or rounded for a petal- like effect. Secure the centre with rubber band or a piece of thread.



Open each folded layer towards the centre until all the layers of the flower are done.


Fluff  the  layers. Do as many flowers as you need.

Now the  flowers are done.




For the Wreath:




Cut out the Circle from the cardboard. (app. 12 inches)

Mark the centre of the cardboard (approximately).

Cut out a small circle in the centre. (app.  6 inches)

Now the base for the wreath is ready.

Start  sticking the flowers to the cardbord.

Cover the entire circle cardboard with the flowers made.

We can use colourful beads , stones or even coloured pista shells  for decorating.

Now, the wreath is done !
