How to Make a Summer Paper Plate Wreath

1. Print off the free printable templates.

You can get the free printable templates at the bottom of the post (on the email form with a preview of the template).

2. Cut out the templates.

3. Color the templates.

You will need to color six of the wreath templates to fill the paper plate as shown. You can also choose to do more or less!

4. Cut out the center of a paper plate.

Cut the center of the paper plate out. I like to bend the paper plate slightly to make a cut mark and then you can get your scissors inside to cut out this portion.

5. Paint the paper plate. 

This is optional, but some of the paper plate might show through depending on where you glue the templates on.

6. Glue the templates to the paper plate.

Glue all of the templates to the paper plate. You can space them out more and glue less down if you do not want to color six templates.

7. Add a loop of twine to the back for hanging.

Tape the twine to the back for hanging.

These summer wreaths are a fun summer camp activity. Decorate a bunch and hang them up for a summer BBQ party. You can even use the templates to make your own summer banner.
