The edge of the fabric tape with a drop of hot glue is fixed from the back side of the cardboard backbone and wraps a strip of overlapping on it, thus filling a little more than half the ring. The end of the fabric is also glued to the cardboard using an adhesive thermo-gun.

4.The next stage we take black yarn, in our case it is viscose ribbon yarn and wrap it around the whole base in a circle, first in one and then in the opposite direction, as if our wreath has covered a web. To prevent the thread from bursting, we also fix it in several places, with hot glue on the back of the work.

9. Carefully cut out the silhouette of the bat on the contour, for a wreath we need three of them.
