Tips For Making A Yarn Reindeer Wreath

You can find the Blanket-EZ yarn at Joann, Walmart, officesupply.com, or get the yarn here online. We love the brown coffee color if you cannot locate the taupe we used!
To keep the yarn from unraveling on the wreath form, use a spot of hot glue to adhere it to metal. You can also use a zip tie.
We were able to find the headband at Dollar Tree during the holiday season. If you cannot locate these or want a different color, we found a multi-pack of festive headbands online.

Notes For Making A Yarn Wreath

When we chose the red ornament for the nose, we had a few different shades of red to choose from. There was matte, shiny and one had a subtle pattern – any of these will work well for the reindeer’s nose.
We used a 14″ wreath form for this project. If you want to use a larger form, perhaps 16″ or 18″, you may need to purchase an additional skein of yarn to cover the entire wreath form.
