Laurel wreaths.

Our last project from Ancient Rome.  Finally!  In Ancient Rome, a laurel wreath meant one was victorious.   You can read more here:  Laurel wreath

We used this book again.
A description of what to do.
Cut out the template.
Make about 20 for each person.
Pipe cleaners.  Bend 2 pipe cleaners into a circle shape and twist together.
Add your leaves to the pipe cleaners.  You have to put a little glue on the inside of the leaves once you have folded them.
The finished Laurel wreath.
My plan was to make the Laurel wreaths for my kids but they decided to make them for their American Girl Dolls so here are the victorious American Girl Dolls.
Lily Jane.
Annie May.
They look pretty victorious to me. 

We are going to say Ciao to Ancient Rome for now, but I know we will revisit at a later date.
