How to Make a Wreath from Pegs
For the third Preloved Christmas craft of the year, we’ve brought you a simple step-by-step guide of how to create a wreath made from pegs. You can use it as a beautiful Christmas decoration or to hang your Christmas cards from!
You’ll need:
- Wooden pegs (around 50)
- Green spray paint
- Used cardboard box
- Red wool
- Wire (an old coat hanger will do!)
- Ribbon
- Method
1. Clip all of your pegs around the top of a cardboard box and spray paint them. This way, the paint gets distributed evenly. Leave the pegs to dry overnight.
2. Bend a wire coat hanger into circle, and wrap the circle in red wool.
3. Place the pegs the whole way round the circle, leaving a gap at the top
4. Tie the ribbon into a bow around the exposed wire at the top.
5. Clip on all the cards you’ve got so far and hang it somewhere that you can enjoy it!
