DIY Pirate Ship Wheel

Paint the larger foam wreath from the foam wreath set with brown paint. You can paint it on with a brush or use brown spray paint. If you choose to use spray paint, be sure to use multiple light coats so you don't damage the foam.

Find a wood pole or thick dowel you would like to use to mount the skull onto. Use a drill and a spade bit that's the size of the pole and drill a hole in the bottom of the skull.

Repeat and make a second hole in the top of the skull.

Place the wood pole into the hole at the bottom of the skull and out through the top. Leave a few inches of the pole sticking out the top of the skull.

Tie a knot in white rope around the top of the wreath. Wrap the rope around the wreath and the pole multiple times to hold it in place. Repeat for the bottom of the wreath.

Wrap a piece of fabric around the pirate's skull and use a ponytail holder or rubber band to hold the fabric together in the back. Use a glue gun to attach the fabric at the front and sides of the skull to make sure it's secured.

Choose six bones from the Bag of Bones that are all approximately the same size. Use a hot glue gun to glue one of the bones to the top of the skull and the top of the wreath so that it covers the wood pole. Repeat for the bottom of the skull, and then add two bones on each side for a total of six bones.

Wrap white twine or rope where each bone touches the wreath to reinforce it and make it even stronger. Tie a knot in the back or use hot glue to secure in place.

Wrap a net around the bones and wheel. Cut off the extra from the end of the net.

Add starfish and shells to finish off the wheel and add a nautical feel to the pirate wheel.
