Burlap Wreath Update/Redesign

I was very pleased with myself when I made this burlap wreath last year.

It took a long time to cut all the squares and pin it all together… but I have a new tip for you if you are interested in creating your own.

Unfortunately

a very nice bird decided to try to make a nest on it and when I arrived at the farm house it was on the floor in pieces.

I decided to remake the wreath but this time used a straw wreath form for the base.

The pins were actually much easier to insert and the wreath is stronger.

I also decided to embellish with flowers that have clips, this way I can easily change them with the change in season.

Dressed up for Fall

Added poinsettia pins for Christmas

Now I have a strong burlap wreath that I can change depending on my mood…

Check out Burlap wreath for full instructions but remember that using a straw form was easier.

Thanks for coming by,
