Materials
- Paper plate
- Construction paper (or cardstock)
- Glue
- Marker
- Hole puncher
- Ribbon
Instructions
Step 1
Cut out petals of different shapes, sizes, and colors from construction paper. (You can use the image above as a guide.) On several of them, write something you are thankful for. Then, cut out round brown circles for the pistils. Next, cut out a large hole in the center of the paper plate.
Step 2
Assemble your flowers by layering the pointed ends of the petals on top of one another and fanning them out. Then, place a brown circle on top of where the ends meet and glue them together to form a flower. Next, glue the flowers around the paper plate.
Step 3
Punch a hole in the top of the wreath and loop the ribbon through it, as shown to the left. Then, hang up the wreath for all to see!
