Step 1. Download and print half-circle wreath template. On a photocopier, enlarge the image by 140 percent, to print on 11- by 17-inch paper.
Step 2. Cut out template, and trace onto a sheet of 1/4-inch-thick foam core. Then, flip the template and trace to create a full 14-inch-diameter ring.
Step 3. Next, download and print leaf template. Print onto cardstock and cut out.
Step 4. Trace the leaf template onto plain brown kraft paper (or a disassembled paper bag), repeating until you have about 85 leaves, enough to cover the entire wreath ring.
Step 5. Cut out all the leaves, then fold each one in half to create a sharp crease. Open the leaves back up and begin attaching them to the front of the ring by stapling them into the foam core ring, working from the inner circle out and making sure to hide staples by overlapping the leaves in layers.
Step 6. Once you've covered the entire ring, attach a self-adhesive plastic hook to the back of the wreath and hang.
