WREATH INSTRUCTIONS:
1. You can get everything you need to make this sophisticated Halloween wreath in any craft store. Start with a grapevine wreath ($5), faux flowers in black and white ($4-10), some black and white ribbon ($2.50), a package of faux spiders ($1), and one large glitter spider ($1). Cut the long stems off of all faux flowers, leaving about 1.5” of stem attached to the flower. For thicker stems, you may need to use a wire cutters. Cut all of the faux leaves off the stems and set aside.
2. Arrange your flowers and leaves on the wreath to figure out the best placement first. Then use DAP RapidFuse to attach the flowers and leaves to the wreath. Apply a generous amount of RapidFuse to the back of the flower and poke the shortened stem into the wreath, pressing the flower down for 30 seconds.
3. Place spiders around the wreath, or hide one inside a faux flower, and use RapidFuse to attach.
4. Using RapidFuse, attach your large glitter spider. 5. Create a bow and use RapidFuse to attach to the top of your wreath.
