DIY Tutorial from A Catch My Party Member - How to Make a Rainbow Wreath

Rainbow themed parties are some of my favorites because of all the decor possibilities.  When Wendy B threw her daughter this Rainbow Party, she added so many great touches, including this gorgeous rainbow wreath.

Wendy put together this tutorial on her blog, Ramblings From the Sunshine State, on how she made it, and has kindly let me repost it. So take a look at how amazingly easy this is to make...

SUPPLIES:
  • $1 wreath form from the Dollar Tree
  • Batting
  • Tacky glue
  • Baby yarn
  • Felt
  • Glue gun
  • Baker's twine

Wendy first cut strips out of the batting (which doesn't need to be perfect) and wrapped it all around the wreath.

This is what she ended up with.

Next she used this super soft baby yarn. It has 86 yards & was less than $3. She knew this would cover it & wasn't looking to spend much on this.

After wrapping the entire wreath in yarn, she had this, so soft & fluffy. It looks almost like a cloud!

And here is the end result!

To make the flowers, Wendy cut a spiral in the felt & rolled it up then used a little hot glue to secure them together.

She wanted to add some rainbow bunting to the wreath so she cut triangles in the felt, glued them together...

...And strung them on a piece of baker's twine.

How absolutely adorable, Wendy!! Thank you for the tutorial!
