DIY Evergreen Button Wreath Craft

Evergreen wreaths are a symbol of the holidays, but do you know the origins of this tradition?

In English-speaking countries, wreaths are used typically as household ornaments, mainly as an Advent and Christmas decoration. They are also used in ceremonial events in many cultures around the globe. Wreaths have much history and symbolism associated with them. They are usually made from evergreens and symbolize strength, as evergreens last even throughout the harshest winters.

Make your own easy evergreen button wreath with the kids to display this holiday season!
