A wreath for Thanksgiving

Now that it is past Christmas I figured that I should post about my Turkey Wreath. I started off by wrapping a Styrofoam wreath 1/3 of the way around with brown yarn.
 
 
 
Then I cut strips of red, yellow, and orange toole about 10 in long. Then I tied them around the wreath. I used a double knot to make sure they stayed tight. 

 

 
 
I had to stabilize the wreath to make the tying easier. so I stuck my leg through it. Needless to say I was covered in glitter by the time I was done. 

 
 
Here it is after I tied on all the toole. 

 
 
Then I cut out pieces to make the face. I glued them all together and then glued them to the wreath.



 
 
Then I glued a loop on the back to hang it with. 


Here it is hanging on my door!
