A Snowman Wreath
This weekend, I made a new wreath for my side entry door. I love making wreaths of all kinds and have wanted to try one like this for some time. So, I finally attempted a double-hoop snowman wreath.

This is one of those projects that you are so excited to start and then realize, when it is finished, that you failed – totally failed – to take pictures of the process. But it is such a simple wreath to make that you should be able to replicate it from my photos.
For this project, you will need:
- 2 – 8″ wire wreath forms
- White decorative mesh ribbon
- Black felt
- Red Burlap Ribbon
- Hat of your choice
- Pipe Cleaners
- Orange felt for the nose
- Twigs from your yard or broom
- Hot glue gun and glue sticks
To make this snowman wreath, you will first loop the white mesh ribbon through the wire wreath form until fully covered. Then, using the pipe cleaners, attach the mesh ribbon to the wire form. Cover both 8″ wire forms in the same way.
Attach the two wire wreath forms, one on top of the other, like a snowman with more pipe cleaners.
Cut small round or square pieces of black felt for the eyes and mouth. Hot glue these pieces to the top section of the snowman.
Cut a two-inch-wide strip of fabric from the orange felt. Roll it up like a tube to create the “carrot” nose. Add a drop of hot glue to one end and insert it in the mesh ribbon to stick out like a nose.
Also, use the hot glue gun to attach the sticks to the bottom half of the snowman section.
Put the hot on the snowman – secure with more hot glue if needed – and wrap a section of the red burlap ribbon around his neck as a scarf. You can also use a scarf for this part if you have one you like better.
Easy DIY Snowman Wreath
And there you have it, a straightforward DIY project that should only take about an hour to make.
