Burlap Flower Wreath Tutorial

Here is a wreath that I picked up at my local thrift store for $.39.

Before...

{Yikes!}

Here is the transformation.

After... 

 

 

Tutorial:

 To make this wreath you will need:

• Wreath Form 
• Ribbon (1 1/2" wide) -- about 30-45 16" pieces
• Fabric -- for wrapping the wreath
• Ribbon -- 24" approx. for hanging
• Supplies for flower

Wrap a long strip of fabric around the wreath to completely cover it and hot glue in place. 

{This prevents the wreath from peeking through the ribbon. 

It also keeps the wreath from shedding while putting it together.}

 Begin tying the ribbon onto the wreath. 

I tied each piece in a knot crossing right over left then right over left again.

Continue adding ribbon until the wreath is completely covered.  

To make the burlap flower follow the tutorial here.

Attach the flower with hot glue and use coordinating ribbon to hang the wreath.

 Enjoy!
