Obtain the needed supplies. (See list at bottom of this page.)
Choose yarn colors that coordinate with each other. This can easily become a Christmas wreath with red and green yarn colors, an Easter wreath with pastels, a spring wreath with pale green, blue and yellow, etc etc.
Wrap each ball of yarn, either from yarn alone, or using a Styrofoam ball as a base to conserve yarn.
Fasten the ends of the yarn securely with a pin or glue.
Make at least 20 balls, using your wreath form as a guide so you know how many you need to cover it.
Fasten the balls onto or into a wreath form. There are two easy ways to handle this. 5_preformed_wreath_205.JPG1–If using a wreath base, you can simply hot glue or wire each ball onto the base in a pleasing pattern. 2–If using galvanized wire, 6_wire_loop_769.JPGCut your base wire to a length that will form a circle of the size you want plus 2–3 inches (5.1–7.6 cm) extra for fastening. 8_sringing_too_890.JPGPoke the wire through each ball of yarn to "string" them onto the wire. 10_end_to_end_784.JPGPoke the ends of the wire into the "end ball" to finish it off. Hot glue the ends together if you're concerned about the circle widening.
