How to make a simple Easter wreath
As Bostik bloggers, we receive a box of art supplies each month to make a craft within a theme, and this month the theme was Easter. We decided to make a simple Easter wreath, something which involved very little more than gluing and sticking so that all of the children could join in and create something special for our Easter celebrations next month.
You will need
A sheet of soft foam or card,
Glue or blu tack
Ribbon
Assorted foam shapes, buttons, beads, card and glitter
Scissors
Something round to draw round
1. Draw a large circle onto the foam/card and a smaller circle inside the first. We used different sized glass bowls for this.
2. Carefully cut around the outer and inner circles, I did this part for Eva as it can be a little tricky for small hands.
3. Make a small hole at the top of the wreath and thread through the ribbon. This will allow you to hang the wreath when it is finished.
4. Begin to place your foam shapes and decorations around the wreath. We used glue, blu tack and sticky backed shapes. The children found this so easy, simply filling as much of the space as possible until we had created a colourful, Easter hanging wreath.
What a lovely wreath. I think I will try this with the kids next weekend!
Thanks Jon, cutting and sticking is by far the simplest of crafts! xx
This is absolutely adorable – what a simple craft idea for Easter!
Thanks Katy, so simple but it looks fab! xx
That is so cute and simple to do. Will suggest this instead of cards at nursery
Gluing and sticking is always so easy, I love crafts that the kids can do by themselves! xx
Oh this is super cute! Nice and simple for the children to get involved in and a fabulous finish. Love it 🙂

Thank you! They love crafts, I’m not as keen! xx
This looks like a craft even I could manage. I’ll have to have a go with my girls. I’m a bit of a craft a phobe as I’m rubbish at it usually lol. X
Gluing and sticking is my favourite kind of craft, so easy, hehe! xx
Aren’t these so pretty. I might do something like this in the beach hut with the tiny shells we find.
Oh that would be so pretty! xx
This is a great craft idea for Easter. My daughters will have a lot of fun making this
