Crescent Moon Cat Ornament Wreath

 There's something about a kitty playing with an ornament that is maddening and adorable all at once. I saw a Christmas wreath a few years ago that was a cat reaching for an ornament and I knew I had to make something similar. The inspiration hit around Halloween time, so I put a little spooky, black cat, crescent moon twist on it.

 

Everything supply needed for this was from the Dollar Tree except the yarn and the cardboard I used for the cat, but you could totally use some Just Chenille black yarn from Dollar Tree as well.  

Supplies:

Dollar Tree wreath form 18" or smaller if preferred

Black Yarn, the thicker the better

Cardboard/Chipboard - cereal box is the best consistency or you can buy chipboard on Amazon

Any floral pieces you like

Floral wire

Ornament

Ribbon or thread to affix the ornament

Tools:

Cricut -or other cutting machine to cut the Cat shape 

Bolt cutters or wire cutters- whatever can cut the thickness of the wreath form





Here is the cat graphic I used for cutting the image. I used two layers of chipboard and hot glued them together to make it sturdy.


Here is a video tutorial for the whole process. Have fun with this and put your own little flare on it!
