How to make wreaths with styrofoam 

There are different types of wreaths that you can go for, and below, you will find the procedure of making a wreath out of styrofoam as it is durable and light.

Choose your shape and color

Wreaths are usually round, but you can pick a shape of your choosing. After picking the shape, choose the color of the styrofoam. You can go for white or different combinations by spray painting it. The most creative approach is going for monochrome. Choose a color such as maroon and pick different hues of the color to make a wreath. Choose the ribbons, yarn, and fabric in multiple variations of maroon only, and it will give more texture to your wreath.

You can add leaves and different shapes to the wreath and give it depth and volume. When you begin to see the world in patterns, you will exercise imagination as you experiment and explore your wreath-making skills.
