Supplies

• Advent Candles: 5 dripless, tapered candles (3 purple, 1 pink, 1 white – you can also use a pillar candle for the center white candle)  
• Styrofoam Wreath Form (You can also use candle holders to make a free-form wreath on a tray or platter.)  
• Assorted Greenery  
• Assorted Decorations: Choose items such as faux sugared cranberries, small oranges, pinecones, popcorn, stars, ornaments, etc.  
• Hot Glue Gun and/or green florist wire  
• OR, if you are not into crafts, try finding a pretty, premade wreath instead!  

Directions


1. Add greenery to the wreath. Add several layers of greenery and adhere them with hot glue or florist wire. 

2. Add in little details like cranberries and pinecones. Customize the wreath to your liking. This is a great opportunity to involve other family members.  

3. After the decorations are complete, you can finish the wreath by adding candle holders and candles around the wreath. Set the four colored candles equidistant around the wreath and the white candle in the center.
