what you'll need
let's do it
  1. Download the Everyday Dishes & DIY Leaf Template Printable and open in Adobe Reader.
  2. Print leaf template and use as a guide to cut out all colors of felt leaves.
  3. Fold 1 leaf in half lengthwise to form a crease at 1 end. Add a dab of hot glue to the crease then pinch it together so the leaf is no longer flat—you can use a binder clip to hold it in place. Repeat for the remaining leaves.
  4. Cut out center of cake round, using an X-acto knife, leaving a border that is approximately one inch thick.
  5. Arrange leaves into a pattern of your liking or use our photo as a guide.
  6. Once satisfied, glue each leaf onto the cardboard, starting at the top. Work your way down the sides until the cardboard has been completely covered.
  7. Add your choice of embellishment—or make one of our fabric owls to complete your wreath.

If cutting leaves by hand, print and cut template, trace leaves onto felt then cut out using scissors.
