Begin wrapping the green satin ribbon around the wreath – secure with glue. Next wrap red ribbon around wreath leaving a 2 inch space in between – secure with glue.
Begin gluing buttons to wreath (HINT – glue larger buttons on bottom and stack medium to smaller on top).
– to add some pop to your wreath add some decorative red and gold buttons (look at photo for ideas).
