One of my favorite things about Winter in New England is snow! It’s so pretty when those big flakes are falling slowing to the ground. Snowflakes themselves are magical! This easy Winter Snowflake Wreath is great for the holidays or just for winter decor for your front door.
Your finished project will be about 13 inches in diameter. You can customize it with an owl or other animal instead of the Reindeer so you can leave it up long after Christmas is over.

Materials Needed (all from Dollar Store):
- 10 White Glitter Snowflake Ornaments
- 1 White Glitter Reindeer Ornament
- 1 Glitter Iced Berry Branch Pick
Tools Needed:
- Hot Glue
- Hot Glue Gun
- Wire Cutters or Shears
Instructions to make the Snowflake Wreath:
Step 1:
Remove hangers from the Reindeer Ornament and 9 (out of the 10) Snowflake Ornaments.
Step 2:
Arrange Snowflake Ornaments in a circle. At the top of the circle, place the one Snowflake Ornament with the hanger. Slide the ornaments closer together and begin overlapping each ornament. Ornaments should overlap approximately 1/2 inch and 2- 3 “points” should be overlapped.
Step 3:
Start with the top Snowflake Ornament and hot glue the overlapping areas to the two snowflakes next to it. Each time you lift up an ornament to glue, the other ornaments will slightly shift. To make sure you keep the circle formation, adjust the ornaments back into place between each gluing. This ensures you’ll glue the right overlapping areas. Once all snowflakes are glued together, let sit for a few minutes to make sure the glue has dried.
Step 4:
Gently flip over the snowflake wreath making sure to keep it as flat as possible. It is easiest to slide the snowflake wreath off the edge of the table to pick up. This keeps it from bending. If one of the snowflakes separates, simply arrange it back into the overlapped position while upside down and re-glue. Now tack down all overlapping areas with a glob of hot glue to make the bond stronger between each ornament. Let dry completely.
Step 5:
Flip wreath right side up.
Snip off 3 – 4 sprigs from the Berry Pick and arrange them on the snowflake wreath along with the Reindeer Ornament to gauge the best placement. I tapered the sprigs so each sprig would end just above or to the side of the Reindeer Ornament.
Step 6:
Hot glue the berry sprigs to the wreath first.
Step 7:
Then arrange the Reindeer Ornament into the right placement and hot glue it to the wreath.
