Making a Christmas floral wreath out of pretzels is a fun and inexpensive way to decorate for the holidays. All one needs is some crafting know-how, a little imagination and the steps provided to create beautiful holiday decorations that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Read on to learn how to make a Christmas floral wreath.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Mini pretzels
  • White glue
  • Ribbon
  • Hot glue
  • Decorations
  1. Step 1

    Make the pretzel wreath. Put seven mini-pretzels salt-side-down touching each other on the work surface. Take the plain white glue and put a stripe between each of the pretzels to glue them together. Now take seven more pretzels and put glue all the way around each pretzel and fasten them where the first layer of pretzels comes together.

  2. Step 2

    Entwine the ribbon into the pretzel wreath. Wired ribbon works best for this, as it is more flexible and easier to handle. Stick one end of the ribbon up through one hole in a pretzel and down into the hole of another. Covering the places where the pretzels come together will maker the wreath more firmly fixed and hide any imperfections. Once the ribbon has gone completely around the pretzel wreath, secure it in the back with a dot of hot glue.

  3. Step 3

    Embellish the wreath. Silk poinsettias, holly, pine cones and ivy are all wonderful choices of decoration for a Christmas floral wreath. Silver bells or bows are also a nice touch. One may decorate this Christmas floral wreath any way they desire.

  4. Step 4

    Hang the wreath. Take a piece of ribbon and cross it, making a loop. Glue it together at the intersection and fasten it to the back of the wreath. The Christmas floral wreath is ready to hang.
