To make your own Gingerbread M&M Wreath, you will need :
These M&Ms are so tasty that some of them unfortunately never made it to the wreath. The gingerbread flavor can be found exclusively at WalMart.
Back to the tutorial…
First, wrap your wreath form with ribbon.
Next, lay out your M&Ms on the wreath in your desired design. Leave a space at the top for a bow.
Hot glue the M&Ms to the wreath. I found that using a long string of glue and putting on about 4 M&Ms at once was easier that gluing them one at a time.
Tie your bow on and you’re ready to hang it.
Give your M&Ms a thin coat of clear nail polish to ensure that they remain intact. Do not use Mod Podge to seal your wreath. Mod Podge disentegrates the candy coating.
