1. For the manufacture of this wreath you will need wooden sticks of different thicknesses, cut into pieces. Immediately prepare curved twigs of interesting shapes and sticks with knots.

2.Each stick carefully paint on all sides with white paint. You can just dip the branches in acrylic, use a brush or sponge. Acrylic paint is practically odorless and dries very quickly, so the painting process will not cause any difficulties.

3. Leave the branches for at least 1 hour until the paint has completely dried.

4. Take a sheet of cardboard and draw a circle of the desired size on it. You can focus on it in the process of making a wreath.

5. We begin to form the basis of the wreath. Spread sticks along a circle drawn on cardboard. To do this, choose more even pieces that fit well.

6. Having finished laying out the first circle, proceed to the second. Place the sticks as close to each other as possible.

7. When the base of the wreath is ready, begin to lay out the transverse sticks. Use a glue gun to lock them. Carefully look at where the sticks touch and glue them.

8. Continue adding sticks to the wreath, making it voluminous. Glue each new layer carefully.

9. Lastly, glue thinner and curved branches. Thanks to this, the wreath will look more interesting.

10. Go to the decoration of the wreath. It is best to use white painted wooden decorations. Place wooden snowflakes on a wreath and glue with a glue gun.
