Wood Biscuits Christmas Wreath

I have said it many times, but I love making wreaths and finding new ways to make them.  The inspiration for this wreath came from a visit to our local Home Depot with my husband, who always has to look in the tool aisle.  While I was patiently, or not so patiently, waiting for him to stop drooling over the latest gadget, I saw a container of wood biscuits for miter joints.  How similar they look to leaves struck me, and I thought they would make a great wreath.  I decided to try it out.

Wood Biscuit Christmas Wreath

For this project you will need:

• 12″ flat wood wreath form
• Ryobi Wood Biscuits
• Wood stain in your choice of color
• Acrylic paints
• Craft brushes
• Hot Glue Gun and glue sticks
• Ribbon of your choice

The wood biscuits were easy to attach to the wood wreath form using the hot glue gun and glue.  I laid them out in a pattern similar to leaves on a wreath.

I wanted to see how the wreath would look stained with gold accents so I applied two coats of Minwax Early American stain.  I painted some of the “leaves” with gold metallic paint, but it didn’t have the look I hoped for.

It just didn’t look like a Christmas Wreath.

 By painting some of the wood biscuits with green and white paint, the wreath finally had a more festive look. A red bow added to it makes it look even better.

I may attempt another one with all green or some other look for the upcoming holidays.
