6. Penny Wreath with Faux Greenery
Bring a touch of nature indoors with this lush, greenery-filled wreath. The combination of copper pennies and faux leaves or eucalyptus creates a fresh, organic feel that’s perfect for spring or summer gifting. It’s also a great way to add a pop of color to your penny crafts.
Materials: 15–20 pennies, faux greenery (eucalyptus, ivy, or small leaves), floral wire or hot glue, small wreath form, scissors, ribbon or twine.
Instructions: Start by wrapping the wreath form with floral wire or greenery to create a base. Tuck in faux leaves and secure with hot glue or wire. Once the greenery is in place, add pennies in clusters, gluing them down so they peek through the leaves. Leave some areas more densely packed with greenery for a natural look. Finish with a ribbon or twine loop for hanging.
Time: 2 hours | Difficulty: Moderate
Display Suggestion: These ornaments look stunning grouped together on a mantel or as part of a larger wreath display.
