Burlap Wreath

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 Burlap Ribbon ribbon rolls from the floral section in Micheals, hot glue, straw wreath, rotary cutter with mat and decorative ribbon.

Cut your burlap in 4 1/2 inch 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!

  46. Tammy Hebert says:

    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.

  72. 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!
