It is no secret that I love felt and I love wreaths. I've combined the two several times in the past, why not for Easter?

I didn't realize how pricey styrofoam can be until I made my Pumpkin wreath. I'm on a very strict budget right now so I was thinking of what I could use to make an easter egg wreath. Then I remembered a cardboard box that I had recently thrown out. I grabbed it, opened it up and traced a fairly big egg shape on it. Here's how to make one for yourself.
Cut out a bunch of circles out of felt. I didn't count how many I did, I just did a bunch at first and cut out more as I went. Mine are roughly 2 inches. Have your cardboard egg ready. Take your circle of felt and put a line of hot glue along the middle. Fold it in half. Then make another line of hot glue on one side and then fold down. Turn it over and put a dollop of glue on the bottom and then stick to your cardboard. Repeat. :-) (By the way, I used my cordless glue gun that I got for Christmas - love it!).
Hot glue some ribbon to the back and hang it up! Super easy.
I love how happy and Spring-y this is and it goes perfectly with my Easter Garland and Easter Pennant Banner!
Do you decorate for Easter?

Ohmygolly, that is so cute! I haven't felt moved to make another hanging decoration for Easter since I made a wreath out of plastic eggs a couple years ago but I think I'm going to have to make one of those over spring break even though it will be after Easter so it's ready to go for next year. Thanks for sharing it on A Crafty Soiree, you're one of this week's features Hope you'll be by on Thursday to see it and share more :)
Your wreath IS perfectly adorable and springy! :)
