Ingredients
Materials
- 20 pieces Coffee filters These form the base of your flowers. You can dye them for added color.
- 1 roll Green floral wire This will help in constructing the wreath structure.
- 1 piece Hot glue gun Use this for attaching the flowers to the base securely.
- 3 pieces Glue sticks For use with the hot glue gun.
- 1 piece Scissors You will need these for shaping the flowers and cutting the wire.
- 1 bottle Floral paint or dye (optional) For a colorful twist, consider painting your filters.
Instructions
Preparation
- Begin by dyeing the coffee filters if you wish to add color. Mix food coloring with water in a spray bottle and lightly mist the filters, letting them dry completely.
- While the filters dry, cut lengths of green floral wire to create the base of your wreath. Form the wire into a circular shape that matches your design.
Assembly
- Once your coffee filters are dry, stack a few filters at a time and pinch them together to form clusters. This will create the flower shapes you’ll be attaching.
- Use the hot glue gun to attach the clusters of filters to the green wire base. Start from the outer edge and work your way inward, ensuring you fill in the gaps as you go.
- Continue layering until the wreath is densely packed with flowers. Feel free to mix and match colored filters to create dynamic floral arrangements.
- Once you’ve achieved your desired look, let the glue dry completely before displaying your wreath.

Tips & Notes:
Consider the relationships between flower colors, shapes, and spacing for an aesthetically pleasing design. If your flowers look uneven, gently reposition the filters while the glue is warm. For variations, use seasonal colors, small flower accents, or a rustic background.
