It was pretty easy once I got started. I just wrapped a straw wreath in strips of burlap and glued it in place with my hot glue gun, and then accented it with flowers.
I made the flowers out of strips of fabric, which was surprisingly easy, once I got the hang of it. There are tutorials all over the internet, but basically I just cut strips about 1 inch wide and 12 inches long. Starting at one end, I wrapped each one around and around itself, gluing every inch or so, and then when I got to the end, I glued the last half an inch across the bottom of the flower to kind of seal it. I don't have any pictures of the process- sorry!- but it's really pretty simple.
I'm thinking about making a similar wreath for Christmas, but haven't decided for sure yet. I'll keep you posted!
Do you have a pretty Fall wreath? What kind of wreath are you envisioning for Christmas?
