DIY St. Patricks Day Rainbow Wreath
DIY St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Wreath
Create a bright and colorful wreath for St. Patrick’s Day Rainbow Wreath! This fun DIY wreath uses yarn, felt and lots of gold coins!
Supplies Needed
Foam wreath form(
polyfoam) – mine was 11.8″ by FloraCraft
Yarn in rainbow colors
Plastic cold coins
Green felt shamrocks
Green ribbon
Hot glue
Tape
Step One: Create the pot of gold.
Cut the green
glitter felt into a “pot of gold” shape using the foam wreath form as a guide. I traced around the bottom half of my wreath form to get started and then trimmed the pot to be about 6″ tall. I cut small divots into each side to shape the pot.
Step Two: Create the rainbow!
Divide the top half of the wreath form into 7 equal parts – one for each color of the rainbow. For my form, this ended up being slightly over 2″ when measured along the inside part of the form.
Start with the red yarn and wrap the yarn around the form tightly. Secure the ends with glue or tape and repeat for all seven colors.
After covering the top half of my form, I decided to extend the red and purple sections down farther since the white form was peeking through the divots in my pot of gold. I covered the bottom part of the wreath form with
green yarn.
Step Three: Adhere the pot of gold to the wreath.
Glue the pot of gold onto the wreath form. I used hot glue.
Attach gold coins from the back side of the pot. The gold coins I found at Joann Fabrics were a really light plastic which worked perfectly for this.
Step Four: Decorate the pot of gold.
Decorate the pot of gold with ribbon and felt shamrocks. Add a small hanging loop to the top of the wreath with green yarn.
