Easy Burlap Wreath

National Crafting Month: Creation #2!

If anyone looks at crafts or DIY on Pinterest, they're bound to see all different kinds of wreaths. With all the wreaths I've been seeing, it seems that burlap wreaths are trendy right now. Since I had some chevron printed burlap left from this initial wreath I made for my mom and burlap ribbon was 50% off at Hobby Lobby, I decided why not? I searched for a burlap wreath I could easily make and stumbled upon some pretty easy directions here. This blogger is so right, you kind of learn to make it as you go along, and it's super easy!

Burlap Wreath with Chevron Print Bow

Supplies

burlap ribbon ($4.99/roll)

accent ribbon ($2.50/roll)

12" wire wreath form ($2.99)

Scissors

Embellishments

Begin by placing a pre-formed loop through the bottom of the wreath form. Leave a small tail of burlap behind so the loop doesn't come out. Continue by poking loops through from the bottom in each wire section (3 loops across). 

This is two sets of three loops- 6 loops total. I put 3 or 4 rows of loops in each section. 

Continue looping through wreath form. One roll of burlap got me around half of the wreath, then I began on roll number two. Make sure to leave a tail on the ends of the ribbon so you can secure the loops.

This is what my wreath looked like when I was done with the loops. There's a small gap on the bottom, where I glued the bow I made out of the chevron accent ribbon. 

I glued a loop to hang the wreath on the back and ta-da! Complete! 

I love how it turned out!
