Directions

1. Wrap the burlap tightly around the foam wreath shape and make sure that you cover every inch of the wreath without leaving any blank spaces. You can glue the beginning of the burlap ribbon to the foam wreath shape for a more secure attachment.
2. When you have wrapped all of the foam wreath shape, cut the burlap ribbon with a scissor. Glue the end of the ribbon with some hot glue to the wreath, keeping everything snug and tight.
3. Wrap the silk ribbon around the wreath leaving even spaces between the wrappings and making sure to leave a piece of ribbon at the beginning to use for hanging. After wrapping the wreath until you’ve reached the starting point, cut the ribbon and make a double knot using both ends of the ribbon to secure it close to the wreath. Make another know to create a loop for hanging the wreath.
4. Now you can use your hot glue gun to add whatever decorations you want to your valentine burlap wreath.
