    Snowy Owl Christmas Wreath {DIY}

    12.06.2017 · create, diy · 16

    With only a couple more weeks until Christmas, I thought it was about time that I take my spring wreath down and replace it with a Christmas wreath! Yes I said “take my spring wreath down” and I’m slightly embarrassed haha.

    I swear you guys, it literally feels like it was just spring and the whole year pretty much got away from me. But I won’t let winter come without a winter wreath so here it is!

    I saw these wreaths at World Market as was inspired to create my own version. 

    Snowy Owl Christmas Wreath DIY

    Supplies

    • White Floral Wreath Form
    • Faux Fur Grizzly in White (1/2 yard) – I got mine at Joanne’s for 40% off.
    • Snowy Owl Figurine
    • Accents: Snowy Pinecones, Twigs, & Pine Sprigs
    • Hot Glue Gun

    This was such an easy project and I’m pretty impress that it came out the way it did. 

    Directions

    STEP 1 CUT

    Cute the faux fur in strips. I only used two strips to cover my wreath.

    STEP 2 WRAP

    You’re going to add glue and start to wrap your fur around your wreath adding glue as you go. 

    Note: You will use a lot of glue! I used about 5 sticks with my mini glue gun.

    You’ll just go around and around until you have the wreath fully covered. 

    STEP 3 GLUE ON ACCENTS

    Once your wreath is fully covered, start to attach the twigs and pine sprigs. I left some room in between for the pine cones.

    Make it how you would like. It doesn’t have to be perfect or a certain way. Obviously the twigs from our yard were a bit straight compared to the inspiration but that was ok. 

    I then added the owl. You will have to hold it in place while the glue dries and keep adding some to get it to stay in place. Like I said it doesn’t have to be perfect and it’s trial and error. So do what works for you. I put the pine cones on last to cover up the owls feet. 

    Here’s my finished wreath! 🙂

    I think it came out pretty darn good and it cost me under $15 with Joanne’s coupons and sales. Now I finally have a wreath to hang up and put me in a festive mood for my Ugly Sweater Christmas Party this weekend.

        Hi Cathy,

        I found the owl at Hobby Lobby. I’m not sure if you have that in Canada but you can find it any craft store during the holidays or on Amazon. It was only about 3-4 inches. 🙂

      I’m going to try this, only instead of the faux, I going to use a white boa. Saw them at the Dollar Tree in the toy section. : )

        I believe it was a 12″ but you can go as big or as small as you would like. 🙂
