Materials Needed:
Wire wreath frame
Fabric scraps (red, white, and blue)
Scissors
Step-by-Step Instructions:
Prepare Your Fabric:
Begin by cutting your red, white, and blue fabric scraps into strips approximately 1 inch wide and 6 inches long. The strips don't need to be perfectly uniform, adding to the rustic charm of the wreath.
Tie the Strips:
Tie each strip of fabric around the wire frame. Secure the strips with a single knot at the front of the frame, allowing the ends to fan out and create a full look.
Cover the Frame:
Continue tying the strips close to each other so that the entire wire frame is covered. Mix the colors as you go to create a vibrant, patriotic pattern.
Fluff and Arrange:
Once all the fabric is tied, go through and fluff the strips. Adjust and spread out the fabric as needed to fill any gaps and ensure a lush, full appearance.
Display Your Wreath:
Hang your newly crafted wreath on your front door or anywhere you'd like to add a bit of patriotic flair.
