Tutorial - Making a miniature dollhouse wreath base


Dear Readers,
 It has been years I haven't posted a tutorial. Today, I'd like to show you how I make my wreath base.


This is what a wreath looks like.  As you might know, the process of making a wreath is simple. 1. Make the wreath base. 2. Stick petals on. 3.Color it.

However, there is no miniature size wreath base that could be sell online and you might need to do it by yourself.


STEP 1:
Buy some very thin iron wire, you could get it from local craft store. You could also use different wires in different sorts of colour. In here, I use three thin iron wires.
                                **************************************************

STEP 2:
Use a green tape to tape the three wires together. You could get the green tape from local craft store as well. Make sure you tape the three wires completely. It could be a little bit tricky since the wires are too thin. Be patient.
                                  **************************************************

STEP 3:
Circle the wires for two times. This step determines the diameter of your wreath. So you could use any tools that is in a cylinder shape. In here, I use my little finger because I want the wreath to be smaller. (So that you won't need to make TONS OF PETALS to stick onto it) @@
                             
 **************************************************
STEP 4:
Bend the wire around the wreath. Bend for two rounds. Just cut the remaining wire parts off. Make sure there is no sharp edges. And you're done!

Any questions, just comment below and I'll try my best to answer it.
