Drop Cloth Leaf Wreath
When I saw this drop cloth wreath over on Thistlewood Farms, I knew I had to try one! The neutral color is perfect for any decor!
For the wreath, you will need:
- drop cloth-found at Walmart or Home Improvement Store
- wreath form- I used a metal one I found at the Dollar Tree, but any kind of wreath will work
- glue gun and glue
- fabric scissors
The first step is to cut out the leaves. I didn't use a pattern, just cut out a leaf shape at about the same size. I was able to cut out 4 layers at a time and ended up with about 150 leaves.
Once all the leaves were cut out, put a drop of hot glue at one end of the leaf and fold over the end. This will give the leaf some depth once you put it on the wreath form.
Now you can start gluing the leaves onto the wreath form.I glued them on at random intervals, but all facing the same direction.
Once all the leaves were glued on, I hung the wreath on a shutter over my mantle.
I love how it turned out and it looks great!

Love it! I want to make one, too!!
Have you tried this technique with brown paper bags by chance? Or any other media besides drop cloths?
