To assemble the rosettes, fold them into an accordion shape, gluing them together at the tabs to make one continuous strip.
Curl the accordion folded strip into a circle, and secure the end tab with glue.
Glue the center of the rosette over a center wheel to hold it in place. Use as much glue as necessary to secure the center, and hold in place until secure. Take care not to burn your fingers during this step!
Glue the spider webs onto the rosettes, then embellish them with the glitter cardstock spiders.
Attach the rosettes onto the wreath, and add any other embellishments you wish. Ours came with black leaves, and some other ideas to use are synthetic spider webbing, fall foliage, or feathers.
Hang your wreath on your front door and prepare for spooks!
