Wreath Making Directions:
- Unroll a few feet of your burlap ribbon. Fold it in half and secure it to the wreath with a pipe cleaner or jute twine.
- Loop the burlap through the wreath’s inner section and then back again. Flip the wreath frame over and secure the burlap again with the twine (make a loop and knot it to secure).
- Loop the burlap through the inner section and cover the knot. Loop it again through the middle section of the wreath. Make a third loop on the third section of the wreath.
- Push the loops to make sure they are even.
- Repeat this process again to make more burlap loops.
- Secure the burlap ribbon after making 3 rows of 3 loops.
- When you get to the end of the wreath frame, pull the burlap ribbon through to ensure there aren’t any gaps.
- Cut the burlap ribbon and secure it with jute twine.
- Make a loop with the wired ribbon. Twist it and make another loop. Repeat this process to make 4-6 more loops. Secure the loops with a pipe cleaner. Spread out the loops to make them fluffy.
- Secure the ribbon to the wreath with a pipe cleaner.

This wreath is adorable I love that shade of blue next to those hydrangeas. This is very delightful.
What size letter did you use in this wreath?
Hi Courtney, we don’t make the wreaths personally. We link to Etsy Owners who make the wreaths, so only they could tell you how large the letter is. Thanks for visiting!
how many rolls do you use to make 18 inches wreath
You can use 2-3 rolls per wreath. Depending on how puffy you would like them to be! 🙂
