Instructions
Trace the inside of the ears from one bunny wreath form onto posterboard to make petal templates. Cut 12. Trace the center circle of one bunny wreath form and cut from posterboard.
Stack six bunny wreath forms on top of each, evenly distributing the ears all the way around the center circle to create a sunflower shape. Use zip ties around the center to secure tightly.
Use hot glue to glue chunky yarn to the front of the petals, outlining each one separately. Be sure not to glue any petals to each other; if any petals are touching squeeze them gently to make them narrower.
Measure out 6-7 more yards of yarn and cut off the rest. Use the yarn to wrap the center circle. Wrap once in between each set of petals and then three times inside each petal.
Continue until the center circle is completely wrapped in yarn. Tie it off in the back and trim excess.
Cover each petal template with fabric, pulling the fabric around the template and hot gluing to secure.
Hot glue each petal behind the petal space on the wreath.
Add a hanging loop on the back of the wreath. Be sure this loop is attached to the wire wreath form, not the yarn.
Glue rope to the circle template in a spiral to make the sunflower center. Use plenty of hot glue to glue this to the front of the wreath.
Hot glue on any additional decorations if desired.
