By: Kathleen George for STYROFOAM Brand Foam

Brighten up your front door - or your baby girl's bedroom door - with this fun, fluffy pink feather wreath.  Certain to elicit smiles, this project can be recreated in red or green to celebrate Christmas.

Materials:

• STYROFOAM™ Brand Foam:
  • Wreath, Round Face, 12" x 2-1/2" x 1"
• Thick, white craft glue
• Low-temp glue gun and glue sticks
• Scissors
• Ruler
• Pink marabou feather boas, 6' long, two
• Contrasting feathers, one package
• Metallic mini glass ball ornaments, 15
• Coordinating wire-edged ribbon, 1" x 1 yd.
• Wire or ribbon, 6" length

Instructions:

1. Beginning around outside edge, use glue gun to dab foam wreath with glue before pressing boa to surface. Work small areas at a time to prevent glue from drying too quickly. Continue in circular fashion until entire surface is covered; trim excess boa.
    
2. Tie 1"-wide ribbon into a bow at center. Glue bow to center bottom of wreath; trim excess.
    
3. Use glue gun to secure tops of mini ornaments to wreath in four groups as shown; let dry completely. Use white glue to secure feathers around ornaments; let dry.
    
4. Twist wire ends, or knot ribbon ends, together to create hanging loop. Glue ends into center top back of wreath.
