What to Do
Begin by brushing on your snow paint to one side of your wreath. I accidentally got some on my clothing and it didn’t come out in the wash, so I would definitely suggest wearing a smock or painting clothes for this craft.
Then, while the paint is still wet, dip it in a bowl of fine white glitter. This will give it a fantastic sparkle! Give it a little shake to remove the excess glitter.

Once the paint has dried, attach the gems or mini stickers with hot glue. You could also attach ribbon to the top of your Christmas wreath to make it easy to hang.
Even Miss 18 months enjoyed making mini Christmas wreaths.
Then, if you’re making this as a gift, wrap it up in tissue paper and a mini box. Easy, simple, and the perfect gift for family or friends.

What a cute idea! I hadn't seen snow paint like that before, but it really adds something to the little wreaths!
