Steps to make a tulle Halloween wreath:
Wondering how to make a wreath out of tulle? It’s so easy!
Step 1: Cut the tulle
I started by cutting the tulle. I ended up making two different lengths- one set about 9 inches and one set about 12 inches.
Step 2: Knot the tulle
I then took a strand and tied it in a simple double knot around the wreath. It should be tight but just loose enough that you can rotate it around the ring.
Step 3: Repeat
Repeat the knotting over and over and over again. I suggest doing this while watching a movie! You want to have full coverage of the wreath form.
I alternated between shorter and longer strands, to give it more depth.
I just tied and tied and tied. I worked on this while watching tv, but it took on and off about two hours. Way longer than I anticipated.
I squished and squished the tulle strands into the wreath. I shoved them as close together as possible so there were no gaps.
This is how it looked in the end. I fluffed it up and trimmed any extra-long sticky-outy pieces.
Step 4: Accessorize
Next was time for accessories.
I picked up these eyeballs at the dollar store – spooky!
I also cut some triangles out of white foam for scary teeth.
I used hot glue to attach the accessories to the wreath. It turned out totally adorable!
We also taped up some creepy crawlers to make Sean’s front door complete! Rawr!
