Become a MemberOne of the fun things about DIY projects is combining different crafts you’ve already made to create something new. If you reuse your projects in different ways, too, I’d love to hear about it! This paper and felt eucalyptus wreath is a combination of our crepe paper eucalyptus branches, felt eucalyptus, and cardstock eucalyptus.
Do Eu Love Wreaths?
If you like using wreaths as home décor and wish they would last longer, try making this paper and felt eucalyptus wreath! A handcrafted wreath is a great way to bring some greenery into your home that you can enjoy for a long time. You could hang this wreath on your front door, on your mantel, or on one of your walls.
Not only does this DIY eucalyptus wreath combine three different projects, but it also uses three different materials. Using crepe paper, cardstock paper, and felt gives our wreath some great texture and depth. And it makes it look a bit more interesting, too, we think!

How to Make a Paper and Felt Eucalyptus Wreath
- First, you will need to make your crepe paper eucalyptus branches, felt eucalyptus, and cardstock eucalyptus. You can find all of the patterns and photo tutorials for these projects at the end of this post.
- Next, attach your vellum eucalyptus to the wreath form with your low-temp hot glue gun.
- Add your felt and crepe paper eucalyptus by pushing the wire stems into the wreath form; use hot glue to secure any loose pieces. Note: Be sure to attach the eucalyptus branches in the same direction rotating around the wreath form.

Hi I’m a bit confused as to how many of the Vellum Eucalyptus leaves to cut and how to put them together. Is there a more detailed video or photo tutorial.
Thanks Helen
I am seeing 8 of the vellum (now cardstock) stems. I also updated some of the materials links since we carry everything in our shop. 🙂
