Materials Needed
Here’s what you’ll need to get started:

Rattan Wooden Ring – A sturdy base for your wreath.
Old Paper or Newspaper – To add bulk and structure.
Green Garland with White Edges – To mimic lush greenery.
Red Pipe Cleaners – To form the poinsettia flower petals.
Green Pipe Cleaners – For the leaves.
Yellow Fabric – For crafting flower centers.
Cotton Fill or Stuffing – Adds dimension to the yellow flower centers.
Hot Glue Gun and Glue Sticks – For assembly.
Scissors – Essential for cutting materials.
Gold Ribbon – Optional, for a decorative bow.

Step-by-Step Guide
Step 1: Prepare the Wreath Base
Wrap your rattan wooden ring with old paper to create bulk. Secure the paper tightly using hot glue so it stays in place. This step makes the wreath look fuller and gives it a sturdy base.

Step 2: Add Green Garland
Wrap the green garland with white edges around the paper-covered wreath. Make sure it covers the entire ring evenly, creating a lush and leafy look. Use hot glue to secure the garland ends in place.

Step 3: Make Poinsettia Flowers
Take your red pipe cleaners and shape them into petals. Each flower will need about five petals. Use green pipe cleaners to create leaves, attaching them to the back of the petals to form a complete poinsettia.

Step 4: Craft Flower Centers
Cut small circles from your yellow fabric, place a little cotton fill in the center, and gather the fabric around it. Secure with hot glue to form a puffy flower center. Glue the yellow centers to the middle of each poinsettia flower.

Step 5: Attach Flowers to the Wreath
Arrange the poinsettias around the wreath in a balanced pattern. Use hot glue to secure them to the garland-covered wreath base. Add as many or as few flowers as you’d like, depending on your design preference.

Step 6: Add Finishing Touches
For an extra festive touch, tie a gold ribbon into a bow and glue it to the bottom center of the wreath. You can also add mini ornaments or bells for more flair.
