DIY Farmhouse Style Shaggy Rag Wreath

by Tammy@Deja Vue Designs

I love wreaths. I have wreaths in nearly every room of my house. When Christmas comes around...you don't have to get a new one...but if you do, you can make it a wreath that works any time...and can do a small change up to make it work beyond the holidays. By using, not just the ticking...but the salvage edges too...this turned out perfect for my red farmhouse style. I attached these sleigh bells for Christmas...but I made them so that they could come off easily...and she could go back to a year round wreath.

I love my farmhouse style shaggy wreath

One of the first wreaths I made as a young girl was made with this same principal, but I tied on cut pieces of green trash bags, & trimmed with a red bow. The trash bags made it suitable for hanging outdoors. My mom still has it after all these years.. Yours is much prettier. :)
