Hi hi! My name is Elise and I am excited to share with you a simple DIY wreath that you can make with scraps of fabric, ribbon and a wire hanger.
Carefully unfold the wire hanger and twist it into a circle shape. It doesn’t have to be perfect, you won’t see the wire once we are done.
Begin tying scraps of fabric to the wire with a simple knot. (Scraps of about 7 inches will be best).
Continue tying scraps varying the color and type of material. Push the knots very close together and twist the fabric around the wire to give the wreath dimension.
Once you have completely wrapped the wire, add a ribbon around the main frame and tie with a bow.
It’s ready to hang on your wall for the rest of the season!
Thanks, Elsie, for having me! Enjoy the rest of the Tricks & Treats. xo, elise
How long would you say it would take to tie all the ribbon around the wire??? Looking for a craft with a bunch of women 🙂
Thank you for the inspiration! This is cute, cute, cute! Will be featured in our next article!
i have a few of the things the past few yrs and they are fun! cutting up the fabric is what takes the longest, you can make one for every mth and have it on your door all yr long!!

Now I know what to do with the last wire hang in our home! Super easy too. Thanks for sharing 🙂

I stumbled upon you on pinterest through others while I was looking for wreath making love your Fall one. Thank you for sharing.
I did something similar in about 1993 for Valentine’s Day. I bought a wreath made of compressed hay, bought great V-Day materials cut in 1-in squares with zig-zag shears, took a screwdriver, & punched the material into the wreath (could be foam also but can break so be careful) & voila, a lovely wreath to hang.
wow
Oh wow!This is amazing, and I’m going to try making one in red white and blue for the queens gold jubilee ( I’m british!!!)
Thank you for this DIY! I made my own here : http://elodimoitout.wordpress.com/2011/12/01/couronne-de-noel-100-recup/
I love this. I work with children and I was looking for a project to keep them busy and to prepare for the holidays, I think this will be perfect for them! Thank you xox
Love the idea of the wire hanger as a base. I am definitely going to try. Fabric is a great idea too!

love it!looks so easy !thanks!!!!!!
Love this! This might be a stupid question, but what if your fabric only shows the color on one side and dull on the other? Are you folding the strips before knotting? It didn’t look like it. Thanks!
such a great and simple idea! Gonna make one for my girls rooms! 🙂
It’s a good idea! original and beautiful! the colors!!! 🙂 Pana
