I am totally caught up in the magic of Burlap lately, I wanted to make a wreath, but not just any old wreath. I loved the look of the book page wreaths everyone was making, so I decided I would use that style and incorporate the look of Burlap! It did take a little longer than making the book page wreath though, cutting that Burlap can be tricky and time consuming, but well worth it.
Materials I used: 3 5 1/2 inch wide Burlap Ribbon ribbon rolls from the floral section in Micheals, hot glue, 14 inch straw wreath, rotary cutter with mat and decorative ribbon.
Cut your burlap in 4 1/2 inch long squares, roll from opposite corners and hot glue together. Then glue them in rolls and layers close together around the wreath. Hot glue your ribbon on the back and that it! So simple. I came out really awesome and much larger than I thought! Love it!

Pingback: Burlap Wreath Tutorial | Home Spun Style
What is the size of the straw wreath and the ribbon (12 inch)? It says 4 1/2 inch squares but I have not found 4 1/2 inch burlap ribbon (at Michaels, Hobby Lobby, or Amazon…) Thx! I am NEW to crafting.
Hi Amanda,
The Wreath is a around 14 inches wide. The burlap ribbon is from Michaels, it is n the floral supply section, where the tape, wire, wreaths, etc. are located. It is on large roll, 5 1/2 inches wide by so many feet~(I’m not sure how long my label is missing). You have to cut the ribbon into squares to make the wreath ~ I hope this helps. Good Luck!
Kim
Very pretty! Great instructions!

Hi Kim, Thanks so much for sharing your burlap wreath at Project Queen’s Party last week. It is beautiful and I love the way you rolled the burlap! I will be featuring this tonight at the Highlight Party. If you have not grabbed and posted a PQ Blog button, I sure would appreciate it you did!!! Thank you SO much.

This looks great,thanks for linking up to Creative Mondays
Really rustic and organized looking at the same time, so chic.
This is stupid cute… I seriously have a thing for burlap and love to see new ideas that people come up with. Knowing me, I would have gotten frustrated about a quarter of\ the way into the first layer and somehow hot glue my hand to the wreath, but you did an awesome job!
Cant wait to see what you do next!

Hi Linda, I ‘ve heard a lot about you. I am glad you liked my blog. I am trying to get my mom to make her own blog, since she’s the reason I am so crafty. Thanks for stopping by. Kim Purvis ~Made in a Day
Very cute and I do understand that it ended up being bigger than you thought. That happened with a sheet music one I was making for Christmas. I started on a 12 in circle wreath but it was 36 inches when done..yikes. Beautiful though. Can’t wait to make one like this though.

Beautiful. How did you roll the individual burlap pieces and what length was each piece cut to?
Who would have thought that burlap could look so good…Kathi
Good job with your wreath! It looks beautiful! Sometimes it’s so hard to get all the pieces stuck on evenly and yours is perfect!
What a great idea! I love sheet music wreaths, but the burlap creates such a nice texture.
