This DIY summer door wreath is bursting with the bright colors of summer thanks to honeycomb balls and diy tissue paper flowers. It's the perfect accompaniment to a Cinco de Mayo party, and can add festive color to your home decor all summer long!
Wrap the foam wreath with wired ribbon by adhering the end of the ribbon to the wreath with a dab of hot glue and then wrapping tightly and overlapping slightly as you go. Once you’ve covered the wreath, trim the ribbon and secure with another dab of hot glue.
Cut the honeycomb balls from the garland and add to the wreath with a generous amount of hot glue. I positioned most of the honeycomb balls flat on the top of the wreath, and wrapped a few of them around the edges of the wreath, gluing in place.
To vary the size of the honeycombs you can cut out smaller balls from the original honeycombs with a pair of scissors. Use these to fill in gaps on the wreath between the bigger honeycomb balls.
Finish the wreath with colorful tissue paper flowers. To make them, stack 6 tissue paper squares on top of each other, using a few different colors.
Accordion fold your stack of 6 tissue paper squares.
Staple the middle of the accordion folded tissue paper.
Use your scissors to cut a point on each end of the paper.
Starting on one side of the staple, carefully separate the top layer of tissue paper and pull up towards the staple. Repeat with the other layers to form the flower!
Once you’ve made about 10 flowers in different color combinations, glue them onto the wreath to fill in any gaps between the honeycomb balls.
