How to Make

Step 1

Arrange the holly leaves around the edge of the card wreath, following an easy pattern: light green, dark green, then light green again. Keep repeating this pattern all the way around the wreath. Once you're done, let it dry completely.

Step 2

Attach the remaining leaves around the inner part of the wreath, angling them in the opposite direction of the outer leaves.

Step 3

Cut three rectangles from the purple foam, each measuring 10 cm by 4 cm. Then, cut one rectangle from the pink foam with the same measurements: 10 cm by 4 cm. On the yellow foam, draw four teardrop shapes that are 5 cm tall and 3 cm wide. Then, draw four smaller teardrop shapes, each measuring 3 cm by 3 cm. Carefully cut out all of these shapes.

Step 4

Attach the orange teardrops to the bottoms of the yellow ones to create candle flames, and let dry. Then, stick the flames behind the tops of the candle bases and let dry. Attach the pink "Joy" candle at the bottom centre of the wreath and the "Hope" candle at the top, making sure they're aligned. Stick the "Peace" candle on the left and the "Love" candle on the right, keeping them even. Finally, attach the red holly berries in clusters around the centre of the wreath.
