Wreath Making Directions:
*Burlap wreath version: If you’d prefer to make the burlap wreath version of the baseball wreath. Follow this burlap wreath tutorial and then attach baseballs.
- Drill holes in the middle of the baseballs. A couple of baseballs might be squandered in the process but the sacrifice will at least yield something good! However, using recreational baseballs will make your job easier as their center is made of cork and rubber.
- Clip off the inside ring of the wire wreath form and cut an opening using the wire cutters. Now, pass it through the hole of the baseballs one by one.
- The wreath can be quite heavy. So, in order to keep the baseballs together you can shoot down strong glue in the holes of the ball before passing them through the wire.
- Keep threading the balls until the entire wire is covered. Attach the last balls of both the open ends with glue. Set aside the wreath aside for 12-24 hours to let the balls set.
- Create a nice bow with the ribbons and glue it to the upper part of the wreath.
- This Magic Brush Inc post shows you how easy it is to drill holes into the balls. However, if you don’t want to do the drill work, follow the video tutorial and glue paper cutouts or foam baseballs to the wreath instead of real ones.
