Fall Fabric Wreath
5 Materials
This is a pretty and easy wreath that can be modified with just a change of fabric colors. I made mine for fall.
This wreath uses about 2 yards of fabric (I used four colors- half a yard each), a styrofoam wreath form, scissors (or rotary cutter), ruler, glue, and some kind of poking tool (you'll see what I mean), and an embellishment if you'd like.
The first task is to cut your fabric. I start by cutting the fabric into two inch strips. Then I cut the strips into two inch squares.
I took some Tacky Glue and pour a little into a plastic cup for dipping my fabric squares. Then I wrap a fabric square around my poking tool (I'm sorry, I cannot come up with a better description!). Dip the tip into your glue and then poke it into your wreath form. You don't need to cram it it there with force or in too deep.
Continue doing this all around the wreath form alternating your colors. You'll go around the wreath, filling in all the space that is visible when the wreath is on the wall or on a door.
Don't worry too much about spacing. You're going to fill in all of the exposed areas with fabric. Just eyeball it.
Add your embellishment and BOOM you're done! To get the complete tutorial head over to Under a Texas Sky and check it out!
I also did a video tutorial for this wreath. To watch how I put it all together, click the video link. Give this wreath a try! It's a great project to do with your kids as well.

I made these years ago but used 4 inch squares..I also used a straw wreath. and a screwdriver to push them in. Always very pretty wreath and not to tough to do.

I bet those look so full with the larger squares. I love a wreath that can be made quickly and still be beautiful.
