  Materials

 • 2 green glitter pipe cleaners (we used 6mm-wide nylon glitter ones)
• Scissors
• Ring from the neck of a soda or water bottle (the piece that locks the lid before the bottle is opened; pry off with a spoon if necessary)
• Short length of narrow ribbon for a bow • Miniature accent such as a reindeer or bird, anything festive onhand.
• Craft glue
• Fishing line or narrow ribbon for a hanger

1. Wrap one end of a pipe cleaner firmly around the bottle ring. Continue wrapping until the ring is covered in snug coils. If necessary, add a second pipe cleaner. Trim any excess pipe cleaner.

2. Tie on a ribbon bow and, if you like, glue on a reindeer, bird, or other accent. Let the glue dry.

3. Use fishing line or narrow ribbon to hang the wreath.
