Finishing Instructions
- Do not use this candle base cover with a real candle. Only use it with battery operated or solar candles.
- Take the yarn end from the bow and wrap as much of it as you prefer around the center portion of the bow and secure the end.
- Weave in any remaining ends.
- If you are adding the brooch back, use a needle and sewing thread to attach it to the top portion of the back of the wreath.
- If you are using a ribbon, tie it to the top of the wreath, on the back side of the project, or use a metal Christmas Ornament hanger and thread it through the back or top of the ornament. You can add a small bell to the top if you’d like too!
