Today’s post is actually inspired by a piece I found in my Christmas decor stash last week and it’s from 2014. My son actually made this very piece in preschool a few years back. Naturally, I loved it so much that I had to save it and then I thought “Hey – I need to share this idea with my readers too!” Cause clearly – it has held up AND it’s a personal keepsake that I know I will be adding to our tree, year after year!
So BAM! That’s how today’s Puzzle Piece Christmas Wreath Ornament post was born! A huge thank you to my son’s past teacher for the inspiration in the first place! She’s the real MVP today!!!
You can find the tutorial below and I hope it inspires you too! Happy crafting my friends!!! #gluedtomycrafts
Puzzle Piece Ornament Craft Supplies:
* Small Paper Plate
* Medium/Small Sized Puzzle Pieces
* Green Craft Paint
* Paint Brush
* Craft Scissors
* Tacky Glue
* Red Colored Cardstock
* Your Child’s Picture {4×6″}
* Ribbon
Directions:
* First cut the center of the paper plate out. Set aside. Discard the inner piece.
* Next have children paint a handful of puzzle pieces completely green. Once done, set aside to let them dry completely.
* Now you are ready to start assembling your wreath! Have children glue their puzzle pieces along the rim of the paper plate, until it’s completely full. Go ahead and have them add some red “berries” on top, as well as a pretty bow ribbon.
* To finish off the Puzzle Piece Christmas Wreath Ornament – trim down your child’s picture and place inside the wreath {you can either use glue, tape, a stapler etc.} Then glue some ribbon towards the top for easy hanging. Set it all aside to let it dry completely before displaying proudly!!!
