Such a cute project! I didn’t have very good luck with pipe cleaners, so I paper clipped some of the bandannas together 🤣. I’m not the savviest glue gunner or crafter. Wreath looks good though.
Have one but the handkerchiefs fall down !! Living in south lots of humidity!! What to do??I have used starch.. no luck
I have take pipe cleaners and glued them to the back.
I made this patriotic wreath with metallic red & white bandanas I found at my local JoAnn’s store. Posted a picture of it on this site’s FB page. I think it turned out great!
