Chelsea Yarn Wrapped Wreath

How to Make

  1. Using the template cut out the mermaid’s body from skin tone card, the mermaid features and trident from coloured card and the tail from holographic card.
  2. Add details to the features using fine tip fibre pens and deco pens.
  3. Set aside.
  4. Wrap the wooden wreath in white and shades of blue wool. You can also thread and tie the blue ribbon through the hole at this point so that you don’t lose where the hole is in the wreath.
  5. Stick the tail to the wreath using super tacky glue.
  6. Lastly stick Chelsea’s body to the wreath, slightly overlapping the mermaid tail.
