I finally finished my fall wreath that I have been planning to do for weeks now. I bought a roll of burlap back in the summer with intentions of getting a head start on my fall decorating, but that didn't happen. I have seen so many beautiful burlap wreaths on Pinterest, and I wanted to add one to my fall decor.
Here is the roll of burlap that I purchased at Michael's.
I cut strips of burlap about about the width of the inside of the wreath.
. Next, I folded the ends together and wrapped with floral wire.
The photo below is kind of scary looking, but I wanted to make sure I had my burlap flowers evenly placed around the wreath. Sorry the photos were taken inside, but I had to finish this last night.
Once I had the burlap "flowers" placed on the way I liked them, I filled in the outside edges with burlap. The photo below shows the outside filled in. I also took a few straight pins and pinned down the rough edges of the burlap to give it a smoother look.
Here's a quick little tip.....if you are trying to decide if you want to use rosettes or flowers, toilet tissue makes super fast, beautiful rosettes! :) I quickly made these and stuck them on the wreath to see if I wanted to use rosettes. I do love the white flowers with the burlap, so when spring rolls around all I have to do is change the flowers. Well, make real fabric rosettes that is!
Here is the wreath after I decided to use fall flowers instead of rosettes. This morning I took this photo, but decided it still needed some color.
Here is the finished wreath. I weaved some dark red ribbon through the wreath and stuck a few pieces of fall ribbon in the wreath. I also moved my berry spray to the top.
This was a super easy wreath to make, but this burlap is sure rough on the fingers. It would be better to spread it over a few days instead of one night. I just pinned my flowers on the wreath, so it can be changed seasonally.
I thank you so much for stopping by for a visit. I always love hearing from you! Happy Fall, y'all!!

So beautiful! I love wreaths, but fall wreaths are the best! Great tutorial and pictures. Thanks for sharing them with us!
I love it!..definitely like the idea of the floral wire working double duty as the wire to secure the burlap to the wreath form!
LOVE! Burlap is the best :)
Looks nice! Burlap certainly lends itself well to autumn - rustic and fallish. 'When the frost is on the pumpkin...' etc. :-)
Beautiful, I love wreaths and love to make them too, I have a few different wreaths on my blog.
Hi Kathy,
This is really beautiful!Thanks for sharing tutorial.
Hope you have a great weekend!

I am in love with this wreath! I just might have to make one similar (I have some of the exact same burlap ribbon in this color, red, and olive...I wonder what a mixture of the three would look like?...too much? I LOVED YOURS!! Thanks for sharing!

Looks really pretty Kathy. No fraying burlap is what I like. May just try to make that one.
Thanks

This is an excellent tutorial. I can do this!

Super cute! I love how you folded the ends together to make loops for the flowers. This is very versatile for different seasons. And I didn't know about making TP rosettes. Great idea! Thanks!
It's very cute, and indicative of Fall weather. I love the colors.
What a gorgeous piece! It looks so pretty.

Happy Fall.

I just love your wreath! It's just amazing how burlap can be used to look so gorgeous. The red ribbon was the perfect finishing touch.
Tuula :)
I like the different things you did with the wreath. I'm probably going to have to get into the burlap since it is such a big sensation right now. I like it, too. :) Have a great day. linda
How beautiful and clever! You give great instructions. I can use those. Thanks for sharing on Thursday's Favorite Things.
Oh so pretty! I love how you weaved the ribbon thru the burlap...such a great touch! Thanks for sharing this with us at the All Star Block Party.
Shasta @InTheOldRoad
Awesome! I was trying to figure out how to make a foofy bow with some burlap ribbon I have. I was trying to do it all with one piece. I'm gonna try this way instead...maybe then it won't make my eye twitch. :)
Thanks,Kelly
I made a very similar one out of the burlap ribbon and a wire wreath. I only placed one Fall floral pick on mine. Yours looks gorgeous!!
Pretty wreath. It looks so simple to make. I'm gonna have to try your tutorial. Thanks for sharing.

You make so many great points here that I read your article a couple of times.

Traffic violations can include offenses such as speeding, running a red light or stop sign, driving without a license, and reckless driving.
The "Fall Burlap Wreath Tutorial" is a well-written and engaging craft project title. However, it could benefit from a brief introduction of the required steps and materials. The tutorial should be more user-friendly with clear instructions and accompanying images. It should also mention alternative design ideas to inspire creativity. Overall, the title and content, along with step-by-step instructions and visuals, make it a valuable resource for craft enthusiasts.
