Coffee Filter Wreath

Servings: 1 wreath

Ingredients

Instructions

  • Step 1: Prepare Your Materials
    Start by plugging in your hot glue gun and letting it heat up. While it’s warming, separate your coffee filters so they’re easy to grab as you go.
  • Step 2: Scrunch and Glue the Coffee Filters
    Take one coffee filter and scrunch it up in the center to create a fluffy, ruffled look. Add a generous amount of hot glue to the base and press it onto the foam wreath form. Be careful—hot glue sticks can get very hot, so you might want to use the back of a pencil or a craft tool to press the filters into place.
  • Step 3: Continue Layering
    Repeat this process, gluing one coffee filter at a time onto the foam wreath form. Keep the filters close together to create a full and textured effect. Work your way around the entire wreath, making sure there are no gaps where the foam wreath form is visible. ❗️Be careful!!! I burnt myself many times doing this, ouch! I suggest using the bottom end of a pencil or something similar to help press on the filters
  • Step 4: Fluff and Adjust
    Once you’ve covered the entire wreath, step back and check for any uneven areas. If needed, trim the coffee filters with scissors to even out the shape. You can also add extra filters to areas that need more fullness.
  • Step 5: Customize Your Wreath (optional)
    Want to add a personal touch? Here are some ideas to customize your DIY coffee filter wreath:
    Add a ribbon: Tie a decorative ribbon around the top to hang your wreath.Dye the coffee filters: Use tea, Kool-Aid, or food coloring to create a farmhouse-style wreath in muted tones or a bright seasonal wreath for fall or Christmas.Incorporate accents: Hot glue small flowers, beads, or seasonal decorations for an added pop of charm.
