Next, take a regular wire clothes hanger and shape into a round circle. You can either leave the hook for easier hanging or remove and bend the ends around each other to complete the circle. It does not have to be a perfect circle, once the pine needles are added, small imperfections will not be noticed. For larger wreaths, use two hangers hooked together and help secure with electrical tape or duct tape. | |
| Then, take your pine needle sections and one at a time, wrap around the wire hanger twisting the ends like a twist tie. Space them as full or as sparse as you like. Mix up lengths of the needle sections so it gives a more natural appearance. |
When you are finished wrapping the needles, adorn with whatever embellishments you like. Another decorating tip, you can wipe the pine tips with glue (or use spray adhesive) and dip into glitter or snow flakes. You can also use a sponge dipped in paint to add color to the tips (like gold, silver, white….whatever). | |
