Lets make a holiday trash bag wreath!
Supplies:
1 wire coat hanger
4-5 trash bags (You Choose The Colors You Want)
scissors
<
Instructions:
1. Bend and manipulate the wire coat hanger until you have something that resembles a circle. It doesn’t have to be perfect but it should look round-ish. Or if you want, you can make it into a heart shape. For that matter you can make it whatever shape you want.
2. Unfold the trash bag but don’t open it. Fold it in half so that the bottom edge is lined up with the top edge. Now fold it in half again only this time lengthwise so the sides are together.
3. Now fold the trash bag in half again from the bottom up.
4. Make one last fold lengthwise. Your trash bag should now be in a small square of around 8 inches on all sides.
5. Use scissors to cut off the edges all the way around. You should now have a square of plastic that’s about 6X6X6X6
6. Using your scissors cut the square of plastic into 2 inch strips.
7. Begin tying the strips onto the wire coat hanger form. Be sure to open both ends of the plastic and situate the pieces the way you like so that they are nice and fluffy. The more plastic strips you use the fuller your wreath will be.
8. Bend the neck part of the wire hanger into a nice firm loop.
9. Decorate as you like. You can use bows, battery operated lights, glitter…. almost anything.
