Wreaths are a classic when it comes to Christmas door decorating ideas, but we want to suggest that you go a little further and create a unique design that will be the envy of all your neighbors.

Start working with a wire that you are going to give a circular shape . Then, we will cover the entire surface with colored ribbons. you can follow a  pattern using always the same fabrics in the same order , but you can also do a completely random pattern.
