Have you seen all of the brilliant fall wreaths out there? I finally got around to designing my own with what I had on hand.
Here's what you'll need:
- Wreath (mine has a 12" diameter)
- Neutral fabric for the base layer (I used 1/2 yard ish)
- Fall toned fabric scraps
- Craft glue (I just used elmer's)
2. Cut your base fabric into 60 1x10" strips. Depending on the look you're going for and the bulk of your fabric you may want the strips longer, shorter, skinnier... Play around with it a bit before you cut all your fabric. Then... just tie the strips on with double knots, staggering the knots a bit.
3. Work your way around the whole wreath
4. Cut your fall fabric into 2-3" circles. Wrap the fabric around the end of a screwdriver and add a dab of glue.
5. Shove it into your wreath
6. Fan out each little fabric tuft
7. Add as many as you want going all the way around
Enjoy!
