Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Arrange Washers
Arrange large washers in a circle with space between them to overlap small washers. Adjust spacing until you achieve your desired wreath shape.

Step 3: Weave Ribbon
Once fully bonded, weave green ribbon through washer holes in a looping pattern. Leave enough ribbon at the ends to form a hanging loop.
