This Dollar Store Halloween Skull Wreath is super easy to make and looks great hanging on any door or mantle!
- Punch Holes
If your skulls are plastic, take a sharp pair of scissors or a large awl and punch holes in the sides of all the skulls. You don’t have to worry about this step if the skulls are the foam versions.
- String Onto Wire
Cut a 3′ section of wire and string the skulls one at a time.
- Twist Wire
Once all the skulls are in place, twist the wire to close and cut off excess with wire cutters.
- Secure with Glue
Position the skulls and secure with a good amount of hot glue in between each one. I found it helpful to add a bit of glue to the front and a ton of glue to the back!
- Add Bow
Wrap the ribbon around the bottom of the wreath and tie a bow in place. Your Dollar Store Halloween Skull Wreath is done and done!
Yay for Dollar Stores!
You almost don’t even need a tutorial this Dollar Store Halloween Skull Wreath is so easy to make!
