Supplies needed:
2 bags of peppermints, hot glue gun, red bow, garland, styrofoam wreath and a clear sealant spray.

Step 1:
Take a cut out stencil of a circle to draw around the wreath for a line marking where the center circle of mints will be placed.

Step 2:
Put a little amount of glue on the back of a mint and press it down against the wreath on the line drawn. Repeat with each mint until the center circle is complete.

Step 3:
Repeat step 2 to complete both the inner and outer circles of mints.

HINT:
Drawing lines for the inner and outer circles isn't necessary. Just simply follow along the center circle to ensure the perfect shape.

Step 4:
Measure out the garland in 2 pieces to put around both the inside and outside of the wreath.

Step 5:
Hot glue the garland around the inside of the wreath, and then do the outside.

HINT:
Be sure to use plenty of glue. It's best to put the glue on the middle of the garland where there's thick wiring.

Step 6:
Hot glue the red bow to the mints towards the bottom.

Step 7:
Then spray a clear sealant spray over the wreath to protect the mints.
