Homemade illuminated Christmas door wreath: a highlight for your front door

Step-by-step instructions for your illuminated Christmas door wreath

Setting the scene for stars

Start by artfully wrapping the chain of light around the metal star. Make sure that the lights are evenly distributed to create a harmonious lighting effect. Place the star in the middle of the decorative bowl and carefully fix the lace in place with a little hot glue. This will keep everything in place. Attach the battery compartment of the chain of light to the outside of the bowl so that it remains easily accessible.

Flowery festivity

Cut small pieces from the flower arrangement foam and attach them to the spaces between the star using hot glue. These serve as a base for arranging fir branches and holly. Use a side cutter to shorten the stems to the desired length if necessary. Experiment with the arrangement until you are happy with the result.

natural materials for the finishing touches

For the finishing touches, glue mini cones into the remaining spaces. These little natural materials give your wreath an authentic look and enhance the Christmas ambience.

A touch of arts and crafts

Now turn your attention to the star-shaped pendant. Tear out the desired motifs from a handkerchief and remove the top printed layer. Coat the star with a thin layer of napkin varnish - a special adhesive varnish for napkin technique - and place the handkerchief motifs on top. Coat them again with the varnish to fix them in place. Allow the pendant to dry well before sticking it in the center of the bowl to crown your wreath.

Hanging for the perfect place

If you plan to hang your wreath, attach a picture eyelet to the back of the bowl. You can knot a piece of sisal cord to it to attach the wreath securely to the door or wall.
