Steps

  • Step 1

    Display your holiday cards on this wreath. The sample art shows hearts for Valentine's Day, but you could use any holiday symbol you like. Here's how to make the wreath.

  • Step 2

    Cut out at least four big paper plate hearts with Crayola Scissors. Color each heart with Crayola Markers. Overlap hearts to form a circular wreath. Hold them in place with Crayola School Glue. Air-dry the glue.

  • Step 3

    Colour letters with markers on a piece of white paper that spell out a special message, such as LOVE. Cut out the letters and glue the message on your hearts.

  • Step 4

    Punch a hole in the top. Tie sturdy ribbon through the hole for a hanger. Tie in a big bow. Around the edges of the wreath, cut slits toward the centre. Slide your holiday cards into the slits for a beautiful display!
