and this wreath frame...
You will also need pipe cleaners. Gold pip cleaners would be better...but when you live in a small town and the only thing that's open on the day you decide to work on this is Sunday...well, whatever the dollar store has, you'll take. I got rainbow! LOL! Luckily I made sure they don't show through. I cut each pipe cleaner to make three equal pieces. This was a great length to tie the burlap tot he frame.
First you make a loop with the burlap, whatever size you want and tie a piece of pipe cleaner at the bottom of the loop. Continue doing this all the way around the wire hanger. I started on the bottom wire and each loop I fastened was on a different wire. So bottom, middle, top, middle, bottom, etc. That way the wire didn't show through the burlap. I used 2.5 spools of this ribbon and when I finished it looked like this...
Not perfect, but not bad for my first wreath. I wanted this to be a razorback wreath for the front door, so I searched for a wooden razorback. That search didn't go well. I had almost given up and then I was getting off the escalator at Dillard's and saw this adorable burlap one...the perfect size!!
I cut a piece of burlap and folded it in half and made a loop to attach this. I used pipe cleaners to fasten it to the frame. Then I found some black letters at Michael's and hot glued it to the bottom of the wreath...
Very easy project...much easier than the season we are facing! WOO PIG SOOIE!!!!!!!!!
