Circle around a simple wreath this holiday made of PVC pipe, glue and a piece of chain.

1

Cut PVC Pipes

Using a miter saw, cut all PVC pipes into lengths of approximately 5 3/4 inches.

2

Arrange the Pieces

Arrange the pieces around a round object that is approximately 6 inches in diameter. A roll of duct tape would work, as would a 6-inch bowl. Arrange the pieces with the different sizes evenly distributed. The only requirement is that you place 2-inch pieces where the chain will eventually go. That would be at approximately the 10 o’clock position and the 2 o’clock position on the wreath.

3

Mark and Glue

Once you have the pieces arranged, use a pencil to mark the locations where each piece comes in contact with another piece. This will help you apply the glue in the right place. Glue one piece at a time until you have all of them glued together.

4

Drill a Hole

Drill a hole in both of the pieces that will hold the chain. The holes should be the appropriate size to fit the screw threads of the two drawer knobs.
