4 Star Idea Rating

Appropriate age group(s):
Elementary School

Estimated time to make this decoration:
30-60 minutes, can be done in parts

Materials:
2 different colors of tissue paper (lots of one color, 2nd color for accent)
one wire hanger

Instructions:
Stretch out wire hander into circle with hanger hook at top. Cut tissue paper in strips about 6 inches long, 1 inch wide. Fold strips over hanger frame, twist paper tightly to stay on and push tightly together. Repeat until circle is complete, using second color for contrasting "bows".

Other comments or suggestions to consider:
Although listed for elemetary age kids, some younger ones can help with this as well. When complete, the wreaths actually look really good and make a nice gift and look especially good on mom's office door at work.
