I love crafting with dowels because they are so darn inexpensive. The base of this wreath is one you can easily customize to your personal tastes or for an upcoming holiday. With succulents being just as hot as geometric designs in the DIY world it seemed a good idea to put the two together for one fabulous all seasons wreath!
For this project you will need:
Aleene's Wood Fusion
Wood dowels 5 x 48" long
Fine tooth hand saw
String (crochet used here)
Place 2 dowels without notches onto the wet glue, approximately 1 inch in to create a square. You'll have about 1" of wood sticking out on every side if done correctly. Lay on a flat surface and allow to dry, overnight is best.
Continue with all of your dowels until you have 5 squares.
The next day take your squares and begin stacking them turning them little by little to create a fun, geometric shape. It might take some time to play with the squares until you are happy with the design. Place a drop of glue on every place where wood connects with wood. Keep the wreath flat and allow to dry. Overnight, again, is best.
Once dry paint or stain your choice of color.
